Research
Our research group studies autonomous and semi-autonomous systems, with a special
emphasis on robotics, aerospace applications, formation flying satellites,
nonlinear estimation theory, cooperative estimation and
control, and structural dynamics and control. Links on the left detail Professor Campbell's bio, courses,
students and staff, and publications.
