Dr. Douglas Isenberg

Associate Professor, Mechanical Engineering


Dr. Isenberg completed his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. His interests are in the areas of robot control, space robotics, system theory, and the application of quaternions to problems in dynamics and control.

Some of his current research activities include the investigation of a force-feedback manipulation approach to recreating free-floating space robot dynamics, the development of quaternion attitude dynamics and non-linear control methods, and development of on-orbit space robot manipulation control systems. In addition, Dr. Isenberg has been involved in several projects related to the development of systems for high-altitude gondolas .
