Energizing a new generation
Alexandra Masterson, aerospace engineering undergraduate student, and Pritesh Patil, mechanical engineering Ph.D. student, are busy sharing information about energy efficient and autonomous vehicles with Kalamazoo area school children in an effort to encourage more students to enter STEM fields and to share exciting advances in autonomous vehicle technologies.
Fox17 West Michigan visited the lab recently to interview the student group hoping to commercialize technology for driving autonomous vehicles in snow.
Research
香港六合彩玄机 Michigan University's Energy Efficient and Autonomous Vehicles Lab actively pursues a realization of sustainable and safe automotive transportation through research and development. Under the direction of Dr. Zachary Asher, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, the laboratory has partnerships with industry, government, national laboratories and other universities to develop and commercialize key technologies in this space, including autonomous vehicle infrastructure, perception in adverse weather, resilience engineering and energy efficient operational techniques.
