The Intelligent Robots Group once again features in Ben O’Shea’s “Inside Cover” column of The West Australian newspaper, 11 June 2015, with the inevitable tongue-in-cheek references to terminators and the robot apocalypse. The performance of robots at the recent DARPA Robotics Challenge, which Dr. Sheh played a crucial role in developing way back in 2012 […]
Back in 2012, Dr. Raymond Sheh was one of the developers of the tasks of the DARPA Robotics Challenge, during his previous role at the US National Institute of Standards and Technology. He joined DARPA in December 2013 as one of the operations team for the DARPA Robotics Challenge Trials, held in Homestead, Florida. A […]
The Intelligent Robots Group continues to support international efforts aimed at improving the ability of responders to address hazardous situations. Dr. Raymond Sheh traveled to Florida for the Camp Blanding leg of the 2015 Raven’s Challenge, an event that tests the ability of bomb squads to address various hazards. Dr. Sheh deployed various new tests […]
I am currently a Computer Science Honours student doing research with Dr. Sheh. I am passionate about the field of Computer Science, and am now exploring my interests in the field of Robotics. The research project I am undertaking has a particular focus on using state estimation and sensor fusion techniques to model objects in […]
