 Biclops comes standard with mounting tabs for attachment to a flat surface and also provides a standard 1/4-20 tripod mount. All axes are under closed-loop control, with motion commands supplied by an external computer. |
 Data Interpretation & SummarizationComplicated systems such as space vehicles, unmanned air vehicles and robots produce huge amounts of data that must be interpreted and summarized. Often this interpretation and summarization is done manually which is costly, error-prone and time-consuming. Our researchers create systems that automatically interpret and summarize data from a wide variety of sources. This work, funded by NASA and DARPA, focuses on monitoring and control of manned and unmanned assets.  Mobile ManipulationNASA awarded TRACLabs a grant to design and build the next generation of mobile manipulators for NASA robots. The new light-weight, low-power manipulator sports seven-degrees-of-freedom and is completely self-contained by embedding all electronics within itself. Its universal coupling allows for automatic change-out of end effectors for a plug & play like flexibility. TRACLabs, in cooperation with Carnegie Mellon University, is also designing software control algorithms to couple the manipulator control with the robot base control. |
