MIT

Design and Control of Multi-Agent Robotic Systems

Dr. Shinkyu Park, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA

Mar 17, 12:00 - 13:00

B9 H1 R2322

In this talk, I will present my research on designing multi-agent robotic systems and developing theory and algorithms for system control. The first part of the talk will present my research on designing an animal-borne remote imaging system and developing theory and algorithm for distributed sensor fusion that enables estimation and detection of animal group movements using the system. I will explain data collection capability of the system and share system deployment experiences in monitoring a wild life of African animals In the second part, I will describe my current work on developing a fleet of autonomous robotic vessels.
