Other
Mobile Robotics: Worked in the mobile robot group of Rodney Brooks designing the TV circuitry for the robot Attila. Attila was a precursor of Sojourner, the robot NASA sent to Mars in 1997.
Computer Chess: Worked with David McAllester developing the ABC-Search chess algorithm. The world champion chess program Socrates used some of our techniques successfully.
