Despite this progress, recent advances in affordable robot sensors, actuators, and systems have changed the robotics playing field, making many of the assumptions of geometric path planning obsolete. This talk will present new mathematical paradigms and algorithms that are beginning to address some of the issues faced in robotics today, as well as those that are likely to be faced in the future. Specific issues identified in this talk include optimality, real-time performance, interpretability, problems involving contact, and integration with perception and learning.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EKris Hauser is an associate professor in the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University with a joint appointment in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department and the Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science Department. He received his bachelor\u0026rsquo;s degree in computer science and mathematics from UC Berkeley in 2003, his Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford University in 2008, and then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at UC Berkeley. Hauser was a member of the Indiana University faculty from 2009-2014, where he started the Intelligent Motion Lab. He is a recipient of a Stanford Graduate Fellowship, Siebel Scholar Fellowship, and the NSF CAREER award.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDuke University\u0026rsquo;s Kris Hauser\u0026nbsp;presents a seminar as part of the IRIM Robotics Seminar Series.\u0026nbsp;The event will be held in the TSRB Banquet Hall\u0026nbsp;from 12-1 p.m. and is open to the public.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Kris Hauser presents a seminar as part of the IRIM Robotics Seminar Series."}],"uid":"27255","created_gmt":"2016-09-02 15:14:37","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:14:49","author":"Josie Giles","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2016-09-28T13:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2016-09-28T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2016-09-28T14:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2016-09-28 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2016-09-28 18:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2016-09-28 18:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"572601":{"id":"572601","type":"image","title":"Kris Hauser","body":null,"created":"1472844079","gmt_created":"2016-09-02 19:21:19","changed":"1475895381","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:56:21","alt":"Kris Hauser","file":{"fid":"207127","name":"hauser_kris-002v2.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/hauser_kris-002v2.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/hauser_kris-002v2.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":84338,"path_740":"http:\/\/www.tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/hauser_kris-002v2.jpg?itok=hTJQK65I"}}},"media_ids":["572601"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/mems.duke.edu\/faculty\/kris-hauser","title":"Kris Hauser"},{"url":"http:\/\/robotics.gatech.edu\/","title":"Center for Robotics \u0026 Intelligent Machines"}],"groups":[{"id":"47223","name":"College of Computing"},{"id":"50876","name":"School of Interactive Computing"},{"id":"142761","name":"IRIM"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"},{"id":"81491","name":"Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Machines (IRIM)"},{"id":"667","name":"robotics"},{"id":"167194","name":"seminar series"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJosie Giles\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nIRIM Marketing Communications Mgr.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:josie@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejosie@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
