The Robotic Software Systems Group architects, designs,
and implements end-to-end robotic software systems for
surface, aerial, sub-surface, and ground control systems for flight
and research applications. The group provides:
- Robotic software architectures for centralized and
distributed avionics, and for wheeled, legged, and hybrid robots
- Software system engineering for research and flight
- Integrated robotic applications that include planning,
navigation, estimation, vision, and motion control for heterogeneous robotic platforms
- High-fidelity physics-based rover and spacecraft landing simulations
- Infrastructure for maturing, validating, and evaluating the science return of advanced robotic algorithms
- Ground control software for sequencing, simulation, visualization,
and human/robot interaction
- Maintenance of the section's robotic software infrastructure
- Multi-institutional collaboration on robotic software development
