Research After escaping from an eight-year stint at the
Department of Cybernetics
of the University of Reading I came to the Intelligent Autonomous Systems Lab (IASeL) to carry out research into truly
autonomous robotic systems. During my self inflicted sentence of fun at Reading
I completed both my first degree in Cybernetics joint with Computer Science, and
a Ph.D. in Cybernetics. My doctoral research was in the fields of group
robotics, shared experience learning and flocking, and basically consisted of
playing with toys, err I mean building serious research robots and designing
their controllers. For more serious information on my Ph.D. research and the
specifications of the robots (better known as the communicating Seven Dwarfs)
that I co-designed (with David Keating et al.) and constructed follow this link
(communicating Dwarfs).
