Alberto Quattrini Li

Alberto Quattrini Li is Associate Professor of Computer Science at Dartmouth College, directing the Reality and Robotics Laboratory. His research develops autonomous systems for aquatic environments with applications in environmental monitoring and underwater archaeology. Current NSF-supported projects focus on multi-robot aquatic exploration and archaeological inspection systems.

Research thrusts include surface vehicle obstacle avoidance in waterways, low-cost underwater sensing solutions, autonomous underwater construction, and laser-based air-underwater communication. Recent innovations include buoyancy-enabled manipulation systems and multi-sensor SLAM techniques for underwater operations.

Quattrini Li advises six PhD students and collaborates with archaeologists through NSF grants. His laboratory prototypes systems using custom surface and underwater robotic platforms. No scientific awards are documented in the source materials.
