Join the Department of Bioengineering on the 26th May at 9:00am for The 2021 Annual Bioengineering Lecture + Bioinspired Guidance, Navigation and Control Symposium. This year’s lecture speaker will be distinguished bioengineer and neuroscientist Professor Mandyam V. Srinivasan AM FRS, from the University of Queensland. Professor Srinivasan studies visual systems, particularly those of bees and birds. His research has revealed how flying insects negotiate narrow gaps, regulate the height and speed of flight, estimate distance flown, and orchestrate smooth landings. Apart from enhancing fundamental knowledge, these findings are leading to novel, biologically inspired approaches to the design of guidance systems for unmanned aerial vehicles with applications in the areas of surveillance, security and planetary exploration. Following Professor Srinivasan’s lecture will be the Bioinspired GNC Mini Symposium with guest speakers from Google Deepmind, Imperial College London, the University of Würzburg and the University of Konstanz giving talks on their research into autonomous robot navigation, neural mechanisms of compass orientation in insects and computational approaches to motor control.
