M & M has a major emphasis on research and development in the combination of automatic controls and machine design.  M & M is a past NASA SBIR winner on control systems technology for telerobotics.  M & M has participated in two research efforts with the U.S. Air Force, one in robotics, the other in dynamic modeling and simulation of hydrazine.  M & M has also proposed several innovative research topics in automatic controls for aircraft, missiles, robots, and UAV's.  M & M has also proposed innovative machine design enhancements for internal combustion engines and synchrotron beamlines.  We welcome the opportunity to discuss research opportunities on these and other systems.
