A new patent by University of Iowa researchers combines collision avoidance technology with regenerative braking systems used in electric vehicles to improve emergency braking response time.

UI alumnus Dan Negrut and current staff member Chris Schwarz are helping to design simulations for a rover that may be used for the Artemis campaign.

University of Iowa staffer details experience flying in Aero L-29 Delfin trainer jet with the Operator Performance Laboratory. In full flight suit, strapped into one of OPLs oldest birds with a parachute attached to my seat, we bank east. Off the right wing, a second L-29 and a Beechcraft Bonanza slide into echelon formation.

The strong partnership between the University of Iowa Operator Performance Laboratory and the U.S. Air Force has made the College of Engineering a destination for Test Pilot School officers seeking a PhD.

The United States Air Force Test Pilot School, in collaboration with the University of Iowa's College of Engineering Operator Performance Laboratory, recently made advances in modernizing the student curriculum while providing critical data for continued research in machine learning.

Researchers at the Driving Safety Research Institute at the University of Iowa have completed more than three years of testing to learn the challenges automated vehicles encounter when operating on rural roads.

Troy Brunk, who earned a degree in industrial engineering at the University of Iowa in 1992, has been named president of Collins Aerospace, an aerospace and defense giant that is among the largest employers in Iowa.

The University of Iowa Driving Safety Research Institute was recently awarded $2 million from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to analyze the effectiveness of driver monitoring systems on their ability to detect if someone is driving while drunk—specifically, if they are over the legal limit or not.

Lockheed with University of Iowa Iowa's Operator Performance Laboratory completed an artificial intelligence demonstration using two piloted L-29 aircraft in a simulated air-to-ground mission. OPL is lead by Tom "Mach" Schnell, a professor of industrial and systems engineering and OPL chief test pilot.
