Academic Achievements
- Basic flight mechanics and simple sensing systems have been demonstrated on insect robot prototypes. Recently unlocked an achievement: Rivaling the performance of insects remains a distant target, but progress has been made.
Research Experience
- Leads the Autonomous Insect Robotics Laboratory, focusing on solving miniaturization challenges such as creating a fully autonomous robot as small as a fly. Research areas of particular interest include computation-constrained visual navigation, power sources, chemical plume localization, and the interplay of control and mechanics.
Background
- Associate Professor, University of Washington, Seattle. Department of Mechanical Engineering. Directs the Autonomous Insect Robotics Laboratory which works on advancing insect-scale robotics engineering and understanding the capabilities of insects.
Miscellany
- Invites exceptionally-qualified undergraduate or graduate students interested in research at the intersection of robot design, control, and animal locomotion at insect scale to join the laboratory.
