CardEye is an experimental trinocular, active vision system. The system uses an agile trinocular vision setup mounted on a 3-segment robotic arm. It has the same degrees of freedom as the human eyes and neck, which are vergence, pan, tilt, roll, zoom, focus and iris control. The immediate application of the invention is building a 3D model for the environment. The 3D model can be used in high-level vision tasks such as object recognition, object tracking and robot navigation.The ATRV2 and ATRV-Mini is a mobile robot for projects that require a vehicle to be all terrain capable. The ATRV car is one robotic vehicle, in a family of all terrain vehicles, with a low center of gravity, a weather-resistant enclosure, and big wheels to traverse uneven terrain. These all terrain vehicles can be programmed for military or commercial use. Feedback information on tilt and acceleration of the vehicle feeds to processors to adjust movement controls. The lab owns two of them.
