01
Autonomous systems
Advancing how aerial, ground, and marine robots perceive, plan, and act in uncertain environments.
Brigham Young University
Robotics for thereal world.
We bring engineers, computer scientists, and students together to create intelligent machines that explore, assist, and endure.
Built on collaboration
Big ideas move faster when disciplines move together.
Robotics at BYU connects researchers across electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, and computer science. That shared expertise turns theory into autonomous systems built to make a meaningful impact.
Meet the people behind the workResearch focus
Intelligence in motion
From fundamental algorithms to field-tested platforms, our work spans the systems that make autonomy possible.
02
Field robotics
Building resilient robotic systems for work in the ocean, the air, and other demanding environments.
03
Intelligent collaboration
Designing algorithms and interfaces that help people and teams of robots accomplish more together.
Research beyond the lab
Built to go where the questions are.
BYU students and faculty develop robotic systems for complex, unstructured environments—from autonomous underwater exploration to aerial mapping and multi-agent coordination.
