Prof. Hall's research has been on developing a wheelchair that can climb stairs and on robotic cane for blind.

Prof. Perkowski's group research has been on developing a voice-and-sonar-navigated wheelchair controlled by a PC and microcontrollers. You can find more on this subject in the theses of Kevin Stanton and Dieudonne Mayi. In another effort, he worked on a PC-based device that converts image from a camera to sound.

Currently a group of students working with Alan Mishchenko develops Visual-Studio-based image software based on new principles and specialized for robot working in standard room based environment.
