Kimon Valavanis, PI, School of Engineering & Computer Science (co-investigators: Mathew Rutherford, Mohammad Mahoor, David Gao, Jun Jason Zhang, Yun Bo Yi) Integrated, Intelligent, Autonomous Unmanned Mobile Sensor Proposal: Through this proposal, we will develop one integrated, multi-functional instrument composed of two components: a prototype lightweight unmanned helicopter and a general-purpose landing platform that will also serve as a refueling/recharging station and data relay/repository. This coupled system will function as a mobile sensor serving as an autonomous node in a distributed wireless sparse mobile network of robot teams.
