Combining analytic mechanics theory with Deep Learning using sim2real at scale facilitates highly efficient, robust, grasping that generalizes surprisingly well to new objects.
Can Polyculture farming be automated? An ongoing robotic artwork and research project that juxtaposes natural vs. artificial intelligence to reflect on the natural world and our role and place within it.
To discover what can be expressed with new technologies such as networks, robots, digital cameras, and sensors that could not previously be expressed, we’re designing art installations that explore issues related to cultural history, privacy, and “telepistemology: what is knowable at a distance.”
Fast and reliable autonomous surgical debridement.
DART (Disturbances for Augmenting Robot Trajectories) collects demonstrations with injected noise, and optimizes the noise level to approximate the error of the robot’s trained policy during data collection.
Our Python package for grasp quality convolutional neural networks
Our Python package for interfacing with ABB’s YuMi robot
A set of Python utilities for rendering 3D meshes with OpenGL
AUTOLab’s toolkit for robot perception tasks
Internet-based “online robots” now provide public access to remote locations such as museums and laboratories. The Tele-Actor is a collaborative online teleoperation system for distance learning that allows many students to simultaneously share control of a single mobile resource.
Jester is a joke recommender system designed to study social information filtering. It uses a collaborative filtering algorithm that uses universal queries to elicit real-valued user ratings on a common set of items and applies principal component analysis (PCA) to the resulting dense subset of the ratings matrix. PCA facilitates dimensionality reduction for offline clustering of users and rapid computation of recommendations.

Assembly Line Adaptive Netbot (ALAN), a proposed practical robot system for applications in manufacturing, material handling, and food production that is emerging from discussions between leaders from industry and academic research.
Robot-Assisted Precision Irrigation Delivery (RAPID) is a co-robotic approach where a team of humans and robots move through the fields to adjust low-cost adjustable drip irrigation emitters at the plant level.
