Sandia National Laboratories' Intelligent Systems and Robotics Center (ISRC) develops technologies to perform a vast array of tasks, from defense manufacturing and materials handling to environmental remediation and battlefield applications. The center designs mobile robotic systems to carry out tasks that are too difficult or dangerous for people. Sandia develops the "brains," or software for robotic systems; creates the "eyes," or sensors; and integrates hardware, software, and mechanical components, including micromachines, to create robotic systems.
