I/UCRC: New Site of I/UCRC Safety, Security, and Rescue Research Center

位于夏洛特的北卡罗来纳州大学的安全、安保和救援研究I/UCRC计划为现有中心的使命做出贡献，在自治系统中进行综合、多学科研究，以改善国土安全和应急响应。 该工厂计划将SSR的范围扩展到医疗保健、能源、物料处理和制造，重点关注人类安全、伤害预防和患者护理。 新的SSR I/UCRC网站旨在解决的领域包括自主和引导机器人行动的传感和操纵下的高层次的人类控制，多智能体，实时多模态传感数据的集成，安全的实时计算分析的安全关键SSR场景。SSR技术在私营和政府部门都有世界范围的影响。此外，这些技术的应用正在产生影响，触及公民个人。位于夏洛特SSR I/UCRC站点的北卡罗来纳州大学打算将其带来的研究成果扩展到一系列新的行业，这些行业在区域和国家范围内目前都没有在该中心的互补研究领域中出现。该网站打算利用其I/UCRC网站和强大的NSF资助的项目来扩大对计算的参与（例如，STARS联盟）和REU网站提供机会，让来自代表性不足群体的本科生参与进来，并鼓励他们进入研究生学习。

The University of North Carolina at Charlotte's site for the Safety, Security and Rescue Research I/UCRC intends to contribute to the mission of the existing center to conduct integrative, multi-disciplinary research in autonomous systems to improve homeland security and emergency response. The site plans to extend the scope of SSR to healthcare, energy, material handling, and manufacturing, by focusing on human safety, injury prevention, and patient care. The new SSR I/UCRC site intends to address areas including autonomous and guided robot actions for both sensing and manipulation under high-level human control, multi-agent, integration of real-time multi-modal sensory data, secure real-time computational analysis of safety critical SSR scenarios.SSR Technologies are having world-wide impact in both the private and government sector. Moreover, application of these technologies is having impact that touches individual citizens. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte's Site of the SSR I/UCRC intends to extend the research outcomes it brings to the center to a new set of industries both regionally and nationally not currently represented in the center drawing upon complementary research domains. The site intends to leverage its I/UCRC site and strong NSF-funded programs on broadening participation in computing (e.g., the STARS Alliance) and REU Site by providing opportunities to engage undergraduate students from underrepresented groups and encourage them to enter graduate study.
