There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Unless otherwise noted, all seminars are held in room 1116 in the Marcus Nanotechnology Building from 12-1 p.m. Seminars are open to the public.
Dan Moroni, Product Strategist at Liquid Robotics, presents on his work as part of the RIM Seminar Series.
Abstract
The presentation will go through the details of the Wave Glider and how Liquid Robotics (LRI) is working to build a platform to enable others to do ocean research without the high costs and risks of conducting ocean operations. Moroni will cover some of the challenges LRI has encountered building a persistant ocean robot and convincing some of the world's largest industries to shift how they do ocean operations. Amy Rubsamen will talk about the PacX mission and the record breaking trans-atlantic crossing.
