Aaron joins the MRD03 team with a background in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. In the previous course, he was a key participant in the design and development of a borehole-deployable laser scanner (known as Ferret). This device went on to assist in subterranean void analysis of limestone mines in Kansas City. Experiencing first hand the benefits of accurate 3D maps, he now turns his attention to autonomous mobile devices that can explore and map these underground spaces.
