Stanford Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SISL) is a laboratory researching advanced algorithms and analytical methods for the design of robust decision making systems ^[1] at Stanford University. It operates within the Stanford Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics.

Drone research

SISL has conducted research in autonomous anti-collision technologies for drones. These efforts include developing software to increase drone reaction times when flying in crowded spaces, such as urban areas. ^[2] Research was done in accordance with NASA's UAS Traffic Management (UTM) project. ^[3]

Funding

SISL is supported by numerous external sponsors, including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), MIT Lincoln Laboratory, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), National Science Foundation, Bosch, and SAP.^{[ citation needed ]}
