Professor Robert Wood

(Assistant Professor)

Engineering and Applied Sciences
Harvard University

Prof. Wood's research is primarily in the following areas:

• Microrobotics (aerial, ambulatory, and aquatic)
• Micro air vehicle (MAV) development
• Unmanned air vehicle (UAV) control
• Biomimetic systems
• Composite materials for microrobotic applications
• Surgical robotics
• Sensors and actuators

These areas are symbiotic with each other and create a body of research which is inherently multi-disciplinary, drawing from Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, Material Science, Computer Science, and Biology.
