Legged Robot Control Competition

Russ Tedrake MIT 32-232 32 Vassar Street Cambridge, MA 02139 USA (617) 253-1778 russt at mit . edu Online Calendar

Research Interests

I am interested in finding elegant control solutions for interesting (underactuated, stochastic, and/or difficult to model) dynamical systems that I can build and experiment with. Please see the description of the Robot Locomotion Group for more information.

Biography

On July 1, 2005, I started as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT, and a member of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab.

I received my B.S.E. in Computer Engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 1999, and my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT in 2004, working with Sebastian Seung. After graduation, I joined the MIT Brain and Cognitive Sciences Department as a Postdoctoral Associate. During my education, I have also spent time at Microsoft, Microsoft Research, and the Santa Fe Institute.
