Lab Mission: We pioneer algorithms for robotic perception & autonomy.

Opportunities for Mines students:

Every semester, we offer volunteer positions for students interested in robotics research. Students are grouped based on their interests into teams, such as hardware, autonomy, SLAM, or research. The hardware team focuses on electrical and mechanical robotic designs, the SLAM team implements advanced 3D mapping algorithms, and the autonomy team implements autonomous navigation algorithms using Robot Operating System (ROS).  Students who want to conduct cutting edge research in robotics, machine learning, or computer vision, with the goal of submitting a paper to a top robotics conferences or journals will work in research teams. Explore the lab's research projects, connect with students already involved, and submit your application on the join-us page if you’re interested in joining the lab.

PhD & MS-Thesis positions:
We have PhD and MS-Thesis positions for students interested in robotics, computer vision, or applied machine learning research (submit your lab application here). 

Courses: 

Prof. Fathian teaches "Robotic Mapping & Localization" in the spring and "Computer Vision" in the fall semesters.
