The Unmanned Vehicle Systems Integration Laboratory focuses on the integration of hardware and software in mobile sensing systems.  The laboratory is part of the Research and Engineering Center for Unmanned Vehicles, a university, government, and industry partnership dedicated to the development and application of unmanned vehicle systems. The center’s activities encompass scientific experiments, commercial applications, mitigation of natural and manmade disasters, security, and defense.

Integrated Framework for Controlled Mobility in Ad Hoc Networks ― This project is aimed at developing a framework for controlled mobility in ad-hoc networks that integrates mobility and communication through the systematic combination of distributed cooperative control, resource allocation through reinforcement learning, and fault-tolerant network protocols. Sponsored by AFOSR, Software and Systems.

Remote Management of a Heterogeneous UAV Team ― Researchers are investigating techniques to manage and control multiple robotic vehicles in dynamic, uncertain environments through an integrated communication, command, and control infrastructure that combines high-level mission management with onboard flight management and meshed mobile ad-hoc network systems.
