Khalifa University inaugurates the region’s first-ever advanced lab for Marine Studies and Research, the advanced robotics research facility equipped with wave and stream generation facilities, while Khalifa University’s Center for Autonomous Robotic Systems (KUCARS) and Stanford University entered into a collaboration to explore the use of marine robotics for sustainable ocean ecosystems, including removal of plastics to curb pollution. The Khalifa University Marine Studies and Research Lab allows testing robots under a controlled environment that simulates the adverse underwater environmental conditions of the sea. The pool includes a wave generator, a flow current generator, underwater and overhead tracking systems, and…
