James Bellingham, PhD, is the executive director of the Johns Hopkins Institute for Assured Autonomy and the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of exploration robotics. For more than 30 years, Bellingham has served as a global leader in the development of small, high-performance autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), introducing and refining a class of systems that are now widely used within the military, commercial industries, and science communities. He has been instrumental in innovations for ocean observation and has spent considerable time at sea, leading two dozen AUV expeditions in locations across the Antarctic, North Atlantic, Mediterranean, South Pacific, and Arctic. Bellingham previously led robotics teams at MIT, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
