	My cv My research interests include semi-autonomous and autonomous mobile robotics development and systems integration. Recently I have been working with Mitsubishi SCARA arms with integrated Full Cognex Vision Systems, Teensy 3.2 Microntrollers, and the NAO Humanoid Robot. ATMAE ATMAE Robotics (I Love Robots!)
