My Email Address

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Lehigh University. My dissertation advisor is Professor John Spletzer and most days you will find me in the Vision, Autonomous Devices, and Experimental Robotics (VADER) Lab hacking away on some Matlab or C/C++ code.

My research interests include: convex optimization techniques for coordinating multi-agent systems, wireless sensor networks, hybrid network architectures, as well as sensory perception and estimation.

What's New?

The Sick LIDAR Matlab/C++ Toolbox (3.24.08)

Our group is pleased to announce the release of the Sick LIDAR Matlab/C++ Toolbox. The toolbox provides stable and easy-to-use C++ drivers and Matlab executable interfaces for Sick LMS and Sick LD LIDAR families. I am the primary project developer. You can download the latest release here!

Ben Completes the DARPA Urban Challenge! (11.03.07)

On November 3, 2007 Little Ben (our entry in the DARPA Urban Grand Challenge) was the fourth robot to complete the 60 mile course within the allotted time of 6 hours! In all, just six robots completed the race with Ben being the only Track B 'bot to do so! Click here to learn more!

Ben Advances to the Urban Challenge NQE! (08.09.07)

The Ben Franklin Racing Team (and our modified Toyota Prius, Ben) was selected as a semi-finalist in the upcoming DARPA Urban Grand Challenge! The team is comprised of members from the University of Pennsylvania, Lehigh University and ATL @ Lockheed Martin. The NQE will take place at the former George Air Force Base in Victorville, CA.

IEEE/RSJ IROS 2007 Acceptance (07.08.07)

Our paper, "A Graph Theoretic Approach to Optimal Target Tracking for Mobile Robot Teams" will be presented at the 2007 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2007). The conference will be held in San Diego, California from October 29 - November 3, 2007.
