Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMicah Corah is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the Colorado School of Mines and a robotics researcher with 13 years of experience designing planning and sensing algorithms for teams of aerial robots. His work spans active perception, multi-robot coordination, and information-theoretic sensor planning, with applied focus areas including aerial videography, infrastructure inspection, and autonomous search in subterranean and mine-safety contexts. Micah developed scalable, distributed methods for submodular maximization that enable responsive online planning for large robot teams, a throughline from his PhD at Carnegie Mellon through postdocs at JPL and CMU. He has led multidrone visual tracking and reconstruction projects that bridge technical rigor with artistic and ecological applications, such as sports filming and animal behavior capture. Based in Golden, Colorado, he combines deep theoretical grounding with field-tested systems deployed in challenging environments like dust-filled, communication-limited underground settings.
