Welcome
Our group's research combines biology and robotics to, uncover the principles of robustness that make animals successful at locomotion in natural environments, and, in turn, inspire the design of the next generation of novel robots for effective real-world operation. Specifically, we are working on a variety of projects aimed at enhancing the mechanical, power, sensing, and control autonomy of insect-scale systems so that they can begin to approach the capabilities of their animal counterparts. Please visit our research page for additional details of our work and the latest outputs may be located as publications and associated data/tools.  You may also find our  channel and recent press coverage helpful to gain greater insight into our research. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.
