Hello and welcome!

My name is Max Asselmeier, and I am from Wheaton, Illinois which is a northwest suburb of Chicago. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a BS in mechanical engineering and a minor in computer science, and I am currently a Robotics PhD student at Georgia Tech where I am co-advised by Dr. Patricio A. Vela (IVALab) and Dr. Ye Zhao (LIDAR Group).

At Georgia Tech, I work on perception-informed semantically-aware autonomy for legged systems. This includes terrain-aware navigation for quadrupeds and scene-aware loco-manipulation for humanoids.

I love working with robots, going to concerts, and playing soccer!
