Visit our Research Group

We are always looking for self-motivated and knowledgeable individuals (Research Positions Available). Possible research areas include robotics and control with applications to guidance, navigation and control of unmanned vehicles. All projects will include both a theoretical and an experimental component enabling you to become a well-rounded researcher.

While working in our research group students are expected to have/gain experience in one or more of the following topics:

  • Theory: Nonlinear Control, Optimal Control, Adaptive Control, Nonlinear Filtering, Kalman Filtering, Artificial Intelligence, Digital Control, Multi-variable Control, Consensus Estimation/Control
  • Software: MATLAB/SIMULINK, Maple, C/C++, Python, ROS, CoppeliaSim, Gazebo, Linux, …
  • Hardware: IMUs, Microcontrollers, Opti-track motion capture system and ground truth, Drones, Mobile robots, …

MEng. Students

There are independent studies available for hard working MEng students who are familiar with Artificial Intelligence topics (Supervised Learning, Unsupervised, and/or Reinforcement Learning). Note that an independent study is 1.5 credit, equivalent to 3 graduate courses. If you are familiar with AI topics and interested to apply your knowledge to a real-world research problem, feel free to email me, Hashim.Mohamed@carleton.ca.
