The Seattle Times Reported – Robots are learning to think like humans. Can they meet Amazon’s demands for speed?
The Seattle Times visited the UW MACS lab and made a report.
New funding for dynamic systems and controls
A grant from the National Science Foundation will support research at the MACS lab to study how to enable engineered systems to effectively rely on and respond to real-time data collected from multiple diverse and asynchronous sources.
MACS lab “grandfather”, Prof. Tomizuka, named to National Academy of Engineering!
Prof. Masayoshi Tomizuka at UC Berkeley, PhD advisor to Prof. Chen, has just been elected to NAE!
