Where did CoMeT come from?
CoMeT was funded via the Microsoft iCampus project ( http://icampus.mit.edu ) as part of the RobotWorld project for technology-based Teaching Infrastructure. Continued funding for CoMeT has been provided through an NSF grant from the DMII Nanomanufacturing program under Career Grant: #0348242 – CAREER: Research and Education Plans for Modeling and Design of Fixtures and Six-Axis Manipulators for Nanomanufacturing. The software was developed by Prof. Martin Culpepper and graduate student Patrick Petri as part of an MS research thesis.
