Embodied Intelligence Lab, Michigan State University, Jan 2001 – May 2003 ( 2 Years ++)
Research Assistant

• DAV is a humanoid robot developed in Michigan State University as a test-bed for experimental investigations into autonomous mental development (self-learning). This general purpose humanoid platform consists of a total of 43 degrees of freedom (DOF), including drive base, torso, arms, hands, neck and head. The body supports a wide array of locomotive and manipulative behaviours. For perception, DAV is equipped with a variety of sensing systems including visual, auditory and haptic sensors. It’s computational resources are house on-board including quad Pentium III PowerPCs, large memory and storage, networks and sustainable on-board power supply.
• Designed, built, and tested sophisticated circuitry using CAD software from breadboard testing, to schematic drawings, to PCB layouts, to PCB fabrication and testing of PCB boards.
• Documented all mechanical, electrical parts customized or standardized to prepare a complete BOM of the robot to enable future researchers to duplicate the physical aspect of DAV.
• Results of the research led to a published paper presented in the IEEE 2nd International Conference of Development and Learning in MIT, Cambridge MA (June12-15 2002)
