The video below provides a look inside CSAIL, the largest lab at MIT. It will help you explore and get oriented to the building. We hope to welcome you to CSAIL soon.
The HCI Engineering Group's long-term vision is that in the future anybody will be able to create anything anywhere anytime. Working towards this goal, they build novel hardware and software systems that advance personal fabrication technologies.

Led by Professor Brian Williams, the Model-based Embedded and Robotic Systems Group develops “cognitive robots” - robots that are able to think and act much like humans do. There are three main thrusts to the research in the Model-Based Embedded and Robotics Systems (MERS) group: goal-driven interaction with robots, natural human/robot teaming, and robotic reasoning about the environment.
