The Autonomous Robots and Systems Lab (ARSL) is part of the Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science Department and the North Carolina Battery Complexity, Autonomous Vehicle and Electrification Research Center (BATT CAVE) at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
Our research focus on autonomy, control, and dynamics of mechanical systems, including uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) and uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) . Research areas of expertise include:
(1) Marine robotics: autonomy algorithms and control/design of novel platforms
(2) Modeling, control, and estimation for vehicles in complex flows and disturbances
(3) Multi-robot system information gathering, combined task/motion Planning for automated data collection
(4) Vehicle maneuver/trajectory optimization
We address problems in the above topic areas using techniques from optimal control theory, robotics, state estimation, and aerospace/ocean vehicle guidance, navigation, and control (GNC).
