Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.

How we got this date

NSF lists this award's end date as 31 May 2028.
NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
So the final report is due by 28 September 2028.

Abstract

This NSF ERI project aims to improve the safety and reliability of robots in tasks that involve physical contact with objects. Today’s robots rely heavily on accurate sensing, such as computer vision, which can fail in low-light or cluttered real-world environments. As sensing errors build up, a robot may think it is in the right place when it is slightly off, causing it to move incorrectly, leading to unintended…
