Prof. Venkat N. Krovi is currently the Michelin Endowed SmartState Chair Professor of Vehicle Automation at Clemson University – International Center for Automotive Research. His research focuses on intelligent modulation of distributed physical-power-interactions (motions/forces) between humans and autonomous-systems to unlock the “power of the many”. Research activities focus on the life-cycle treatment (design, modeling, analysis, control, implementation and verification) of a new generation of systems for realizing Human-Autonomy synergy with applications in vehicle-automation, medical-robotics, plant-automation, and defense arenas. He has also taken significant leadership roles within multiple professional societies. He currently serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the ASME Journal of Mechanisms and Robotics.
