/
GRASP Treehouse - Pennovation Complex; LAB Building (Bldg 250 - Suite 250)
3401 Grays Ferry, Philadelphia, United States
This is a hybrid event with in-person attendance in Wu and Chen and virtual attendance on Zoom. ABSTRACT In many applications of autonomy in robotics, guarantees that constraints are […]

MEAM Seminar: “Hierarchical Methods for Geometric Control of Underactuated, Free-Flying Robotic Systems”
/
Towne 337
Free-flying robotic systems (such as multibody aerial and space vehicles) evolve on high-dimensional non-Euclidean manifolds subject to nonlinear, underactuated dynamics. Because such systems can rely only on the severely limited […]

MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Exploiting Flows for Orienteering and Planning Problems”
/
Towne 337
Task and path planning algorithms for robots in the presence of flows confront a fundamental dichotomy between the continuous and the discrete: task planning algorithms discretize the world and their […]

Wu and Chen Auditorium (Room 101), Levine Hall
3330 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
University of Pennsylvania will be hosting the NCI Junior Investigator Meeting this year. The meeting includes several talks throughout the day and poster sessions (5:15 pm Thursday & 4:00pm Friday) NCI Junior […]

Nano Seminar: “Conductive Nitrides for Plasmonics in the Visible Region: Properties and Applications”
/
Room 35, Singh Center for Nanotechnology
3205 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
Plasmonic nanostructure based on silver and gold that produces LSPR to withstand ultrahigh temperatures without damage remains a great challenge for future ultra-compact integrated circuits, and high-power enabled photonic devices. […]

MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Mobile Wireless Infrastructure on Demand in Robot Teams”
/
216 Moore Building
Communication is fundamental to successful coordination in teams of robots. Indeed, the promise that robot teams can complete tasks faster and more efficiently than any single agent depends on their […]

MEAM Seminar: “Photophoretic Levitating Structures Enabling Mesospheric and Martian Exploration”
/
Towne 337
Studying certain regions of the atmosphere is hindered by available propulsion technologies. For example, the mesosphere, ranging from about 50 to 80 km in altitude, has air too thin for […]
