I am the current Technical Director of the Minds & Machines Lab, and have been involved with the lab since 1998. I've been at RPI since 1994, and have earned a B.S. in Computer Science and Psychology, and have recently earned my M.S. in Cognitive Systems Engineering (Psychology). I run the day-to-day activities of the lab, and handle the "detail work" of the research performed here. My research is in immobot technology, sometimes known as immobile robots or intelligent environments. My interests are pretty far-ranging, and include things like the electric bass, sign language, handwriting analysis, origami, professional wrestling (yes, really!), application development, hypnosis, and kinesics.
