Introduction
|
|
Envisioning Robotics is an online archival exhibit that
consists of select items of the Takeo Kanade Collection
from the Carnegie Mellon University Archives. Dr. Kanade
is a distinguished faculty member at Carnegie Mellon and a world-renowned
pioneer in the field of robotics. His research on improved human/robotic
interaction continues to advance computer vision, multimedia,
autonomous mobile robotics, and sensors. The goal of this exhibit is to
showcase Dr. Kanade’s contributions to the
field of robotics. In 2005, Dr. Kanade generously donated his papers to the University Archives with
the intention that they will remain an active collection until his
retirement. The collection contains a variety of documents including
published material, research for various projects, administrative records,
travel and conference material, and video recordings. The bulk of the
collection centers on those projects in which Dr. Kanade
participated, ranging from as early as 1962 to as late as 2003 with the bulk
falling between 1979 and 2000. The collections is
currently being processed and will continue to grow as Dr. Kanade provides access to more materials. Access to the
collection can be provided by appointment with the University
Archives. |
