The DECAR group, led by Prof. James Richard Forbes at McGill University, conducts fundamental and applied research on navigation, guidance, and control.
- A big congratulations to Prof. James Forbes for being the first recipient of the Donald L. Mordell EUS Teaching Excellence Award! The award was created thanks to the generous support of Don Nilson, in memory of Prof. Donald L. Mordell, Dean of Engineering from 1957 to 1968.
- Congrats to Steven Dahdah for successfully defending his PhD thesis titled "Applications of Linear Systems Theory to Koopman Operator Approximation"! This thesis focuses on the use of linear systems theory to enhance Koopman operator approximation methods.
- We are excited to present our recent work at #IROS2024 this week! Shabbir Ahmed presented his work on UWB-based multi-robot formations, while Angad Bajwa presented his work on deep inertial-only odometry for quadrotors,
- It has been an honour and a privilege to be a part of the team involved in mapping the incredible #Endurance shipwreck. Our lab is grateful to have partnered with @teamvoyis, where together we developed a navigation algorithm used during the survey of Endurance.
