Abstract
This paper investigates issues involved in establishing an undergraduate research program in robotics. We discuss our motivation for such a program, the challenges involved with various aspects of administration and equipment, and our plans for projects for student research. One project deals with programming a robot to play air hockey and another project involves the collection of tennis balls from a tennis court using a coordinated team of robots. Preliminary results hold promise, and we are optimistic about the future of the program.
