Sam Venning of IEEE / DES

Topic:

Small to medium sized robots for outdoor applications

Title: Small to medium sized robots for outdoor applications.
Description: 
There is a great need for small to medium size robots in the defense industry. The autonomous ground vehicle project is a multi-phase research and development project for Defense Engineering Services. This project was used as a starting point for the company to try and fill this need for future customers. This platform was built in three months using a small team of Engineers and Citadel students and it was used to understand the many challenges faced when developing robots for the Department of Defense. The DES team has completed phase one of their project by fabricating and integrating the robot. Future phase will cover topics such as autonomy, software redundancy/ integration, the ability to deal with difficult terrain, and human machine interfaces. 
Demonstration: Small to medium size outdoor robot teleoperation
