Ep. 39 - Autonomous Mobile Robots & The Localization Problem ft. Ali Safaei Abstract: The Future of Science
-
- Science
Our guest this week, Ali Safaei, is an Engineering postdoctoral fellow in the Aerospace Mechatronics Lab (Yes, the same lab that Eitan Bulka, Ep. 11, just graduated from!) at McGill University and HumanITAS Solutions. Ali is a force to be reckoned with: he's got a PhD and 23 scientific publications under his belt, as well as book coming up for publicaton later this year! Buckle up and get ready for an unforgettable tour through the wonderful world of unmanned aircraft and ground rovers...
Questions Answered
What's the secret to academic success?
How do we solve the localization problem for autonomous mobile robots?
What are the keys to success for communication within and between groups of autonomous agents?
