As part of the U.S. Army’s Route Clearance and Interrogation Systems (RCIS) project, I led a team of 5 to develop a controller that gave operators more intuitive control over the excavator on the High Mobility Engineering Excavator (HMEE) vehicle. This involved selecting sensors, building a kinematic model of the system, helping to architect software functions, developing a controller that was robust to changes in payload, and directing mechanical and software engineers to execute all of these tasks

Due to the sensitive nature of this project, further details cannot be shared publicly at this time.
