Through hardware and software development (in ROS) on the ubot mobile manipulator, my research focuses on developing belief-space planning techniques that enable robots to overcome situational uncertainty. By focusing on salient subsets of state information and mitigating risk, these techniques lead to robust systems that require less frequent human intervention. I have proposed a hierarchical belief space planning framework to achieve robust decision making under uncertainty. The approach has been demonstrated in mobile manipulation domains which require long term autonomous interaction with unstructured environments. I have made contributions that enable robots to: actively control uncertainty in their environment, make traditional task planning more reliable in partially observable environments, and recover from errors and failures at run-time. TRACLabs Houston, TX Robotics Intern June August 2016 I returned to TRACLabs in the summer of 2016 to continue work on the NASA-GM Robonaut-2 under the CRAFTSMAN project. Additionally, I contributed to an industrial project by developing perception tools and a simulator for an industrial pick and place assembly cell in ROS. Robotics Engineer July September 2015 As an on-site contractor with SRI International in Palo Alto, CA, I helped develop a prototype multi-robot cooperative work-cell for industrial automotive applications. The project required three Denso VS axis arms to cooperatively assemble a door latch in 5 seconds, with a total throughput of 600 parts per hour. The project was developed in ROS with extensive use of the Moveit! planning framework. Along with system integration I developed visuo-haptic calibration routines and a state machine to drive the system. Robotics Intern May July 2015 As part of NASA Phase II SBIR A Planning and Control Toolkit for Dual Arm Manipulation I developed force control and haptic sensing visualization tools for use on the NASA-GM Robonuat 2 using Python and C++ in ROS. Additionally, I developed probabilistic reasoning tools to support tasks that Robonaut 2 would likely perform on the International Space Station.
2 Canisius College Research Team Leader Fall Spring 2012 Led a team of undergraduate students in developing and constructing a responsive robotic agent based upon LEGOs, a Microsoft Kinect and PIC Microcontrollers. When I left the project, an expressive robot muppet had been constructed. Research Assistant to Debra Burhans and Robert Selkowitz Spring Spring 2012 Developed and constructed a robotic chess-playing agent on a shoestring budget out of LEGOs using Java for the AAAI 2011 Small Scale Manipulation Challenge. The robot: Shallow Blue, placed third at the competition and was featured in AI Magazine Vol 33, No 1. Object recognition for chess pieces was later incorporated and demoed at AAAI 2012 in exhibition matches. Research Assistant to Michael Wood Summer Summer 2012 Developed a distributed, multi-threaded data-analysis software package in Java to allow researchers to interface with Pre-shower Calorimeter (PCAL), a detector being built for the 12 GeV upgrade at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Software included graphical user interfaces and physics packages to re-construct reactions that occur in the detector. Research Assistant to Debra Burhans and H. David Sheets Spring Spring 2011 Developed and explored applications of PIC Microcontrollers and serial protocols. Novel uses for microcontrollers were developed, including control of a 1960s era slide projector and a laser harp constructed from inexpensive laser pointers. Publications M.W. Lanighan, T.
