Autonomy Incubator

Autonomy Incubator We're developing autonomous aerial solutions for science and society. Run by Dr. Danette Allen at NASA Langley Research Center.

Since 2014, the Ai has produced research in unmanned applications of machine learning, computer vision, path planning and replanning, obstacle detection and avoidance, object recognition, natural interaction through gestures and speech, and more. We use an Agile development method, with weekly tag-ups and daily scrums to facilitate communication and collaboration among the diverse members of our t

eam. Our purpose is clear: to enable new missions in science, space, and aeronautics through reliable autonomous operations and human-machine teaming. Welcome to the Autonomy Incubator.
