Lab retreat, Big Bear Lake (October 2022)
The Robotic Embedded Systems Laboratory (RESL) is part of USC’s Robotics and Autonomous Systems Center (RASC) within the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and the USC School of Advanced Computing.
Since its establishment in 1998, the lab has been active in many areas of robotics research. We are an intellectually curious group with a strong focus on experimental robotics. Our work has been in multi-robot systems and networked robots with an emphasis on planning and optimization and applications to environmental monitoring. We are also currently active in learning and robot manipulation.
