Overview of the Multi-Scale Robotics Lab

Research

Research

The Institute of Robotics and Intelligent Systems pursues a dynamic research program that maintains a strong robotics research focus on several emerging areas of science and technology. A major component of IRIS research leverages advanced robotics for creating intelligent machines that operate at micron and nanometer scales. IRIS research develops the tools and processes required to fabricate and assemble micron sized robots and nanometer scale robotic components. Many of these systems are used for robotic exploration within biological domains, such as in the investigation of molecular structures, cellular systems, and complex organism behavior.
