Welcome to the LAIRS Laboratories Wiki.
We are located in the Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering Department of University at Buffalo [Map]. Our group focuses on research related to the general area of uncertainty propagation, nonlinear filtering, stochastic control and multi-resolution modeling.
LAIRS lab is equipped with Quanser's 2-DOF helicopter, four Dragonfly's quadrotor, and state-of-the-art VICON's 3D motion capturing system. The main feature of the VICON motion capture system is their smart cameras with three high speed on-board processors which allows on board intelligent image processing and thus, delivers data faster(up to 1000 frames per second). In addition to this, the LAIRS lab also houses the VIDERE Design and MobileRobots's Pioneer 3 DX mobile platforms capable of carrying a full load of robotics equipment, including an integrated PC, indoors and outdoors laser rangefinder, pan tilt unit, sonar ring, Pioneer 3DX robot arm and stereo camera.
The simulation environment in the LAIRS lab uses MATLAB/Simulink, Maple, Mathematica, Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, Java and C/C++ extensively.
Prospective Students
If you are interested in working with me, please feel free to contact me (psingla at buffalo_dot_edu). However, before contacting me, please make sure you go through this website and find out what it is exactly that you want to work on. In particular, I look for students with good background in computational methods, mathematics, applied probability, celestial mechanics and nonlinear control. Though not absolutely necessary, good skills in Matlab, C/C++ and Java would be a great plus. I look forward to hearing from you!
I believe that my success lies in seeing my students succeed and I experience it when I see my students achieve their professional goals.
