The Centre of Research Excellence for Advanced Cooperative Systems (ACROSS) and IEEE Croatia Section, Robotics and Automation Chapter invite you to the research seminar
"Team DRC-Hubo: International Collaboration using a Three Phase Design Cycle"
given by Prof. Daniel Lofaro from Electrical and Computer Engineering Department & Lofaro Labs, George Mason University, USA.
The seminar will take place on Friday, October 3rd, starting at 12:00 in Grey Hall at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing.
More about the speaker and the seminar can be found in the detailed news content.
Abstract:
Prof. Lofaro will show the evolution of the Hubo Humanoid Robot from a research platform to a DARPA Robot Challenge (DRC) ready system via the use of a Three Phase Design Cycle. Benefits and challenges of working with multiple research groups, and the impact it has on becoming a competitive DRC team will be discussed. Finally recommendations for software and social methods to be used when working with medium size research groups will be given.
