Composite materials under dynamic loading exhibit interesting emergent phenomena. Most notably are phononic crystals and metamaterials which can possess frequency dependent and negative elastic moduli and density. In general, the constitutive response is non-local in space and time and depends on both the strain and velocity. Additionally, scattering and local resonance effects can lead to […]

Robot motion planning is a field that encompasses many different problems and algorithms. From the traditional piano mover's problem to more complicated kinodynamic planning problems, motion planning requires a broad breadth of human expertise and time to design well functioning algorithms. A traditional motion planning pipeline consists of modeling a system and then designing a […]

Hardware platforms for socially interactive robotics can be limited by cost or lack of functionality. In this talk I will present the overall system—design, hardware, and software—for Quori, a novel, affordable, socially interactive humanoid robot platform for facilitating non-contact human-robot interaction(HRI) research. The design of the system is motivated by feedback sampled from the HRI […]
