关于我们
We utilize the Theory-Computation-Experiment paradigm to research Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology (LCAAT) with autonomy to establish trust, providing a game changing capability that transforms the way manned and unmanned air, space, and ground systems are designed, controlled, and operated to effectively accomplish missions and tasks. VSCL is thus focused on synergistic strategies for the analysis, control, validation & verification of complex autonomous vehicle and sensor systems operating in challenging environments. We conduct basic and applied research in the areas of: Autonomous and nonlinear control of cyber-physical air, space and ground systems Artificial Intelligence and multi-agent systems Air vehicle control and management Vision based sensors and navigation systems Advanced cockpit/UAS systems and displays Control of Bio-nano materials and structures Our Work Encompasses: Analysis, Design, Modeling, Simulation, and Control Vehicle, Hardware, and Software prototyping Testing Piloted, Remotely Piloted, Optionally Piloted, Operator evaluations The Vehicle Systems & Control Laboratory is directed by Dr. John Valasek.
