The Autonomous Robots and Systems Laboratory (ARSL) is part of the Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science Department. Our research is in the area of aerospace and ocean vehicle guidance, dynamics, control and path planning.

Research areas of expertise include:
(1) Flight vehicles and marine robotics: novel system designs, control/estimation algorithms, and field testing
(2) Vehicles in complex disturbances: modeling, flow estimation, path optimization, and disturbance rejection control
(3) Multi-robot systems: coordination, control and automated or adaptive data collection
(4) Trajectory optimization
: optimal-control-based path planning, sampling-based motion planning
