UTARI Research Scientists Awarded New Patent

Dr. Veysel Erel and Dr. Muthu Wijesundara have been awarded a new patent for their “Corrugated Diaphragm Actuator.” This invention presents a mechanical actuator that utilizes a corrugated diaphragm as the actuator element. In particular, the actuator consists of one or more corrugated diaphragms positioned on one or more walls…

New Study Reveals Insights Into Human Targeting Precision

Researchers at UTARI, in collaboration with faculty and students at the University of Georgia, have developed an advanced model to better understand lay error—the precision with which individuals align sight crosshairs with a target. Funded by the US Army DEVCOM Analysis Center, the study began with creating a photo-realistic tank-gunning…

NASA Awards $1 Million Grant to UT Arlington Team for Advancing Autonomous Aviation Safety

Envision a world where unmanned aircraft deliver goods to your front door and transport passengers in flying taxis, cargo planes cross continents carrying vital trade goods, and fighter jets patrol battle zones—all without a human pilot at the controls. Those scenarios might seem a bit far-fetched now, but researchers are…
