Brendan Englot, SIAI Director
Dr. Brendan Englot (Geoffrey S. Inman Junior Professor, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering, and SIAI Director) has fifteen years of experience developing and deploying mobile robots and autonomous navigation algorithms via land, air and sea. His research uses artificial intelligence to improve the situational awareness of mobile robots operating in degraded conditions, and to enable intelligent robot decision-making under uncertainty. His work in A.I. is supported by the National Science Foundation, the Office of Naval Research, the U.S. Army, and various sponsors in industry.
