Ellenor Brown successfully defended PhD thesis
Ueda gave a plenary talk at IEEE AIM 2017, Munich
Cellular Actuators inspired by Biological Muscles, Dr. Jun Ueda, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA Actuators are one of the key components in robotic and mechatronic systems. Motions generated by actuators enable computer-controlled systems to interact with the physical world. Inspired by unique characteristics of biological muscles, a system-level approach…

NSF CMMI DCSD Grant on Robotic Vision
A new NSF grant on robotic vision has been awarded. The project will study fast dynamic robot vision with muscle inspired actuators. Project title: Integrated Computer Vision System Based on Human Eye Motion, CMMI 1662029, PI: Ueda (Georgia Tech), $332,659, 7/1/2017-6/30/2020
Multi-Disciplinary Georgia Tech Team Collaborating on Jetpack
A team of Georgia Tech researchers is working with a private company to develop the Soldier Vertical Mobility System (SVMS) – a backpack-type propulsion system allows individuals to hover, travel, and maneuver hundreds of feet above the ground. Dr. Jun Ueda‘s lab has been developing an exoskeleton to help push…
