Super fun day at Science Rendezvous Kingston! Thanks to the amazing Lynda Colgan for another fantastic event. And thanks to NSERC President Alejandro Adem and MPP Ted Hsu for stopping by!
Congratulations to ELEC 49X #capstoneproject team of Amelia Maclatchy, Owen Hooper, and Megan Stanke at Queen's University for placing 2nd in the ECE Awards competition for their "Autonomous Building Guide" capstone project and the development of GEORGE (i.e., the #robot). This was a super-fun co-supervision with the wonderful Melissa Greeff! Best of luck to this amazing student team as they all pursue careers in #robotics #engineering and/or advanced technology upon graduation this spring.
This week we say farewell to our long-time colleague Dr. Heshan Fernando (https://www.linkedin.com/in/heshanfernando) who is moving on to a new position at FP Innovations in Montreal, QC. Heshan has been a mentor and friend to many of us at Queen's Engineering—and he will be sorely missed! Yet, I have a strong feeling that our paths will cross again ... All the best Heshan!
The Year in #research at Queen's U is out. Fun to see my students and colleagues at the Ingenuity Labs Research Institute showcased with our #primeminister in the leading image! It's been quite a year ...  ðŸ˜… https://www.queensu.ca/gazette/stories/2022-year-research
2022: The year in research

We are celebrating the milestones and accomplishments of Queen’s research community over the past twelve months.

Nice story this morning in the Queen's Gazette featuring the work of Ingenuity Labs researchers about a #collaboration with the City of Kingston on the monitoring of the new Waaban Crossing #bridge in #Kingston, #Canada. Nice #mechatronics application in #civil #engineering. https://www.queensu.ca/gazette/stories/keeping-watch-new-crossing
Keeping watch on the new crossing

Queen’s students and faculty members are using leading-edge technology to help the City of Kingston monitor the performance of the new bridge across the Cataraqui River.

Here in #canada, today is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on #Violence Against #Women (https://women-gender-equality.canada.ca/en/commemorations-celebrations/16-days/national-day-remembrance.html). Please take a moment to #remember the hatred-driven murder of 14 young women #engineers at Polytechnique Montréal (December 6, 1989). Or better yet—attend a ceremony somewhere near you. And even better yet—take action and speak up against harmful behaviours.

Information on the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women and why we commemorated tragedy at Polytechnique Montréal.

Had a chance to speak to the third-year class of Engineering Science Robotics (ESC 301) students at the University of Toronto last night about #mining and #construction #robotics, #entrepreneurship, #intellectualproperty, and on commercialization of research. Lots of great questions from a keen bunch of future roboticists—like, as an #academic, what's your strategy for ensuring great R&D doesn't die in the lab? Thanks again to Prof. Jon Kelly (https://twitter.com/domo_mr_roboto) for the invite to speak!

#Introduction time! 👋 I am an #engineering #professor at Queen's University in Kingston, #Canada. My expertise is in field and mobile #robotics. I have a newish interest in applications of #machinelearning to #control and #navigation problems. Previously worked as an #engineer at #space #robotics firm MDA. Also currently serve as Director at the Ingenuity Labs Research Institute. My #math #teacher wife and I have three #kids and we enjoy #golf.
