Marty VonaNortheastern’s robotics group takes a computational approach to advancing robotics. Research projects range from system-level control of articulated robots with fifty or more joints to mesoscale issues in compliant actuation and reliable sensing.
Members of the group have assisted NASA by developing systems for use in lunar explorations and on Mars, focusing their work on challenges related to the human operation of complex robots.
