People
CRIM thrives on the diversity of its members. The Center’s community is composed of people from all walks of life - different creeds, nationalities, and academic majors - with a common passion for advanced robotics and intelligent machines. Together, CRIM members span a broad spectrum of talents and interests to form a group engineered to explore the “lunatic fringe” of robotics.
