I'm interested in compiling a list of the planetary rover projects (government, industry, and academic) that are currently active. I'm familiar with the efforts at JPL (Miller/Wilcox), CMU (Ambler), RPI (CIRSSE), and MIT (Brooks), and I would be interested in hearing about any other ongoing research. I'm interested in references to any papers (or people) connected with the following groups: 1) Martin-Marietta I saw their rover featured in Aviation Week. Does anyone know if they've published anything? 2) NASA Ames Research Center I've heard (second-hand) that there is some rover research being conducted here. Does anyone have the details? 3) Rockwell I just saw a mention of a Rockwell microrover plan in the current issue of Ad Astra. I'm curious whether this is just a design or if actual robots and/or simulations have been buit. 4) Any others I've missed If there is sufficient interest, I will post the completed list. Thanks in advance, -- _______________________________________________________________________________ Brian Yamauchi University of Rochester yamauchi@cs.rochester.edu Computer Science Department _______________________________________________________________________________
