The Autonomous Robotics and Interactive Systems Experimental Laboratory at the University of Denver is directed by Dr. Christopher Reardon.
In the ARISE Lab, we research methods to enable robust, intelligent robots that can operate alongside humans. In particular, we seek to enable human-robot teaming in real-world and field environments using computational approaches such as artificial intelligence and multiple interactive modalities.
