My Name is Carter Frost, I'm a geek currently attending UNM and am a Student Technical Specialist for the Moses Biological Computation Lab at UNM as well as a Year Round Intern in Unmanned Sys & Autonomy R&D at Sandia National Labs.

I work on various projects at UNM like: 

VolCAN - Build, Program & Pilot drones into Volcanic CO2 plumes to map them to update climate models and collecting samples to learn more about eruptions. 

MARIAM - Multi-Agent Robust Intelligent Autonomous Manipulation, teaching robots to work together to move unknown objects. 

NASA Minds: Project ChiliHouse - Using robots to grow food in space.

Swarmathon TNG - Using machine learning to teach robots what resources to ignore and what to collect.

I'm from Santa Cruz, California, I originally worked in cybersecurity for many years working on private key infrastructure like national ID systems, Certificate management and private key storage systems called HSMs. ie. systems that establish and maintain trust. 

I taught at Cabrillo College/PVUSD engineering camps well over the 7 years, as well as taught as a supplemental instructor at Cabrillo College in Computer Science & Computer Information Systems. 

I got into robotics ~5 years ago initially through my local community college in California (Cabrillo College's) Robotics club. For a few years I worked remotely with the lab at UNM on various projects like NASA's Houston space center on a new class of rovers for the Moon & Project Chili House. I am now in Albuquerque.
