SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shared Humanity
DESCRIPTION:July 30 - August 31\, 2022\nMon-Fri from 8:30am-5pm and Sat-Sun 10am-2:30pm.\nGallery 100 at 100 Silver Maples Dr\, Chelsea\, MI 48118\nParking available near the main entrance. Please sign in and screen yourself in the entryway.\n\nAdditional Information: https://myumi.ch/Nmx2j\n\nBeginning Saturday\, July 30\, the exhibit Shared Humanity will be featured at Silver Maples in Chelsea from the Prison Creative Arts Project’s (PCAP) private collection. The artwork is for sale and will be on display in the 100 Gallery through August 31\, 2022.\n\nAccording to Sarah Unrath\, Curator and Arts Programming Coordinator of PCAP\, “the exhibition is designed to connect viewer to artist through the wide gamut of their human experiences. We all have dreams\, memories\, goals\, pasts. We all process emotions of anger\, joy\, grief\, nostalgia. We have specially selected works that show a culmination of ways artists in prison have dealt with complex realities of being human.”\n\nThe curatorial staff at PCAP worked closely with artists who were formerly incarcerated\, and the team at Silver Maples\, to select works that would fit the theme of this exhibition and be of interest to the broader audience. Visitors will see works from familiar artists\, including Andy Wynkoop\, An ArtsyGuy\, RIK\, Roger (Free-Hand) Stephenson\, and many others.\n\n“This exhibition centralizes intersecting themes and multi-faceted layers of what it means to be human. Our hope is to challenge the lens through which the exhibit audience looks at people in prison. Coming out of a season that has worn us thin of human connection\, this exhibit presents a unique opportunity to engage in powerful dialogue inspired by the art in Shared Humanity\,” says Unrath\n\nThe 100 Gallery is open Mon-Fri are 8:30am-5pm and Sat-Sun 10am-2:30pm. \nAdmission is free and open to the public. \nSales will be conducted in person on Saturday\, August 6 with alternative phone sale appointments available: https://myumi.ch/DJ6M5\n\nSpecial Storytelling Event: Creating Art Inside\nSaturday\, Aug 6\, 2022 @ 2:00pm\nMaples Room at 100 Silver Maples Dr\, Chelsea\, MI 48118\n\nIn this hour\, we take a look into the lives of artists that created work in the most difficult of circumstances: prison. Hear first hand about their lived experiences and the impact art-making had on their time behind the walls. Hosted by the Prison Creative Arts Project. In-person art sales will be available before and after the event.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Bible Translation Among Displaced People Groups
DESCRIPTION:Today at least 1\,800 people groups still don’t have access to God’s Word\, and many of these people are located in places where missionaries cannot go. But God is at work through diaspora communities!\n\nDiaspora are displaced people groups who settle outside of their homeland and include people like immigrants and refugees. Join us at our five-day\, online workshop “Bible Translation Among Displaced People Groups” to learn how God is using displaced peoples to reach their communities worldwide with his Word.\n\nIn this workshop\, you’ll learn key practices for Bible translation among displaced peoples\, hear inspiring stories of God’s faithfulness in countries where missions work isn’t accepted and learn about the joys and challenges of working among people who do not have Scripture in their own languages. You’ll also learn how English as a second language (ESL) classes and teaching English as a second language (TESOL)are opening doors and discover how your skill set can make a difference.\n\n“Bible Translation Among Displaced People Groups” will help you walk away with a new vision of how God might be calling you to get involved in the global Bible translation movement.\n\nWhen:  Aug. 1-5\, 2022 (10 AM-noon PT plus daily optional 12-12:30 PM for more discussion)\nWhere: Online\nSpace is limited\, so register today!

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Planning\, Control\, and Estimation for Diverse Multi-UAS Missions
DESCRIPTION:Light refreshments will be provided.\n\nChair: Ella Atkins\n\nAbstract:\nUnmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are being used for a variety of single vehicle missions such as surveillance\, inspection\, and payload delivery. Teams of UAS can perform these same missions more efficiently and will pursue novel cooperative missions not possible with a single vehicle. However\, this comes at the cost of increased system complexity and introduces the challenge of safe team coordination. This motivates our research to pursue four diverse multi-UAS mission configurations. We propose novel methods to command and control teams of UAS with the majority supported with full-scale experimental validation.\n\nTo support all experiments conducted in this thesis\, an experimental test bed consisting of a custom\, open-source quadrotor\, flight controller\, and supporting infrastructure is developed with designs and code shared publicly. \n\nThis thesis offers four specific contributions to enable the deployment of UAS teams in missions with potential to benefit society. First\, an existing formation control method\, continuum deformation\, is experimentally validated with observed tracking errors and delays informing the theory. Required inter-vehicle separation constraints are defined and applied to the real system. A global minimum separation bound based on a local controller error bound is derived to guarantee safety during real-world flights.\n\nSecond\, a novel heads-up haptic pushing interface is developed that enables a user to move a heavy payload carried by multiple small UAS through a crowded cluttered environment. Real-time estimation of user applied force via an instrumented payload updates virtual dynamics of an admittance controller to guide the system. This capability will support resilient and safe package delivery to untrained consumers and can  assist in delivering medical and survival supplies in disaster relief scenarios.\n\nThird\, computationally efficient planning methods are developed to support wildfire mapping over a large area by a team of UAS. A state machine is used to handle multi-vehicle task allocation between exploration (coverage) and exploitation (line following). Efficiency gains are achieved by separating the 3D problem into 2D lateral and 1D terrain avoidance sub-problems. \nThis work offers a first step towards mapping increasingly severe wildfire threats that cause significant damage and claim the lives of hundreds of people every year.\n\nFourth\, a generalized path planner is developed to manage a deformable small UAS formation capable of rotating\, expanding\, contracting\, and shearing. Provably sufficient inter-agent collision avoidance constraints are leveraged to efficiently plan safe trajectories in large-scale complex but static environments. An integrated guidance and control module onboard each small UAS tracks the designed trajectory while avoiding pop-up obstacles and vehicle failures by following an ideal fluid flow field airspace template. \n\nWe are only beginning to imagine and prototype the missions made possible with teams of UAS. This thesis provides problem formulations\, solution methods\, and experimental realizations for four multi-UAS mission configurations. Countless other missions can be pursued that will operate safely and can improve quality of life. Continued research is needed to achieve this including full system integration with onboard sensing and collaboration with key stakeholders for each mission that deeply understand the problem spaces. Nonetheless\, this thesis provides a solid foundation for future researchers to build upon.
