The Center for Distributed Robotics is at the forefront of research in robotics. With nearly 100 robots in the lab, with varying sizes, locomotion, computational, and sensing capabilities, there are platforms for a variety of research and realworld applications. Many of the robots used are designed in part or in whole here at the University of Minnesota. Some of these robots include: The Center for Distributed Robotics also has a variety of commercially built robots including: As the number and variety of robots continue to grow, one of the major research challenges is developing ways to easily control groups of them and provide meaningful interpretation of the sensing data. |
