Welcome to AISL
Text Box: The future history books will register our time as the coming of age of intelligent machines. The renaissance and the age of discovery bridged the transition from the medieval to modern world. The age of enlightenment was the time of scientific discoveries and theories about human consciousness of self and the habitat. The last century can be characterized as the time of challenging the status quo in science, and that of cybernetics and artificial intelligence. Many scientists and researchers contend that the emergence of human-like autonomous machines will be a distinctive aftermath of this century. Irrefutably, there will be profound implications in all aspects of individual, emotional, social, and economical life on earth. The world will not be the same place as it used to be and man has to share his world with machines that may be as intelligent. Transformation from our present time to realization of this eventuality in the next few decades requires research into all aspects of intelligent machines from technological possibilities to social implications.   At Autonomous and Intelligent Systems Laboratory (AISL), we study selected problems associated with autonomous systems, explore technological potentials, and seek viable solutions. The current research project includes study of advanced vehicle control systems, assisted driving systems, localization, mapping, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and intelligent control systems.   AISL is led by Professor Ahmad B.
