All Seminar Sessions Occur @ 12:15 - 1:15 (EST)
Get ready for great debates in robotics with Georgia Tech Experts. Each seminar will feature a panel of GT robotics and technology experts to discuss topics in depth.
September 16 | Session 1: "Cost of Transport, the Correct Metric for Mobile Systems?"
Abstract: Energetic cost of locomotion is often the gold standard measures used in autonomous robotic walking for efficiency as well as humans augmented with lower limb wearable robotics. The panel will discuss the relative benefits as well as critical disadvantages to the field’s obsession on energy cost for optimizing robotic systems and controls. Applications to clinical robotics for impaired populations, autonomous biped robotics, and wearable robotics for human augmentation will be discussed. The panel will also discuss potential alternative measures beyond energy cost to assess locomotion systems such as those associated with stability and agility.
Panelists: Aaron Young - GT ME, Ani Mazumdar - GT ME, Greg Sawicki - GT ME, Ye Zhao - GT ME

Two of IRIM's affiliated centers also host weekly seminars. The Machine Learning Center holds seminars on Wednesdays at 12:15 p.m., alternating weekly with IRIM's schedule. The Decision and Control Laboratory (DCL) typically holds seminars on Fridays at 11 a.m.
IRIM's seminar series is video recorded and housed in Georgia Tech Library's SMARTech repository. Additionally, more than five years of historical information about the seminar series is available online.
