Research labs

Where ideas become systems—and systems meet the real world.

Across disciplines

Designed here. Tested everywhere.

BYU robotics labs unite students and faculty around autonomy, control, field robotics, dynamics, and intelligent systems. Explore each team to find its people, projects, and opportunities.

Electrical & Computer Engineering

MAGICC Lab

The MAGICC Lab, or Multiple AGent Intelligent Coordination and Control Lab, focuses on research in navigation, guidance, and control for teams of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles. The lab’s work includes cooperative GPS-denied navigation, UAS autopilot software through ROSflight, and sense-and-avoid methods for micro air vehicles. More broadly, the lab develops algorithms and systems that enable autonomous vehicles to coordinate effectively, operate in challenging environments, and support collaborative robotic missions.
