Autonomous Systems
Abstract
: The Autonomous Systems project area performs applied research in autonomous robotics to address current and anticipated national security needs. One project area goal is to enable unmanned systems to perform useful tasks in uncertain environments as trusted, capable agents without continuous human operator control. Project elements include the development of autonomy algorithms and technologies, and of infrastructure to quickly develop autonomous systems. Lincoln Laboratory also collaborates with research universities to transfer promising autonomy concepts from academia into prototype systems. Technology areas include perception and world modeling, planning, human-robot interaction, manipulation, learning and adaptation, and robotic platforms. Efforts range in scope from simulation-based seedlings to prototype efforts demonstrating autonomous system capabilities in relevant environments.
