Cooperative grasping

Funded by the NSF, a dual arm WAM Barrett robot is used to study grasping and manipulation.

Variable resolution search

Our algorithms for variable resolution search have been validated in field experiments run at Camp Roberts.

WiFi localization

Our recently developed WiFi localization algorithms provide indoor localization and can be run on mobile devices.

Welcome to Robotics at UC Merced.

The robotics lab at UC Merced was established in 2007 by Prof. Stefano Carpin. The group investigates topics related to multi-robot systems and humanoid robots. Examples of past and ongoing research include:

  • cooperative multi-robot systems for urban search and rescue;
  • pursuit-evasion games, intruder detection, and search;
  • robot performance evaluation and benchmarking;
  • motion planning;
  • map merging;
  • cooperative manipulation.
