Join host Rick Outzen on "We Don't Color On the Dog" as he explores the cutting-edge world of autonomous systems with two leading scientists from Pensacola's renowned Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC).
Dr. Niranjan Suri, a 30-year IHMC veteran and Associate Director, teams up with Dr. Matt Johnson, a Senior Research Scientist with over 20 years at the institute, to break down the revolutionary National Center for Collaborative Autonomy (NCCA).
Learn about IHMC's remarkable evolution from a single room at UWF in the 1990s to a multi-building research powerhouse that's putting Pensacola on the map as a global innovation hub. The center plans to hire 10-12 specialists and is already operational with Air Force matching funds and new equipment purchases.
This episode offers a fascinating glimpse into the future of human-machine collaboration, where the goal isn't to replace humans but to amplify what we can accomplish together. Perfect for anyone curious about AI, robotics, and how Pensacola became home to some of the world's most advanced autonomous systems research.
