Where practicable, seek to augment courses with laboratory and emphasize a hands-on approach. Areas of research interests are closely aligned with the curriculum interests outlined above. Specifically, interested in mechatronics which consists of microprocessor-controlled, programmable, electromechanical systems with emphasis on design and control. This includes areas of robotics as well as design of other electromechanical products in which real-time microprocessor intelligence and control is a requirement. Engaged in the application of modular robot systems to hazardous material operations.
Ongoing research includes cooperative manipulation using multiple robot manipulators.
