Robotics and Automation Society Chapter Formed

Members of the Washington Section who belong to the Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) now have a local chapter.

The chapter was approved in April 2007, after Dr. Raj Madhavan gathered signatures on a petition and submitted it to the Regional Activities Board for approval of a new chapter.

Dr. Madhavan has been named chapter chair until officer elections are held. He is a research staff member with the Computational Sciences and Engineering Division of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and a guest researcher with the Intelligent Systems Division of the Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory (MEL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Members who want to receive information about meetings, have ideas for chapter activities, or are interested in serving as a chapter officer should contact Dr. Madhavan at raj.madhavan@ieee.org or 301-975-2865.
