Fordham Robotics and Computer Vision Laboratory in partnership with Georgia
Tech Mobile Robot Laboratory receives $1.05M grant from the Defense Threat
Reduction Agency.
Fordham's Robotics
and Computer Vision Laboratory (RCVL) will share this $1.05M
grant to conduct research into new and novel formal frameworks for the analysis
of probabilistic and behavior-based robotic algorithms for both single and
multirobot applications. The resulting methods and tools will provide a basis
for establishing guarantees of performance of these algorithms in complex real-
world environmental situations. This is crucial for the critical real-time real-
world needs of WMD search, analysis, and recovery tasks. When searching for
WMDs, we cannot assume the luxury of a do-over; we must get it right the first
time!
The research will be led by RCVL Director
Dr. Damian Lyons (Dept. of Computer
and Information Sciences) at Fordham and by MRL Director
Dr. Ronald Arkin
(College of Computing) at Georgia Tech.
