The University System of Maryland at Southern Maryland (USMSM) has recently completed its newest building, the Southern Maryland Autonomous Research and Technology, or SMART, Building. The new 75,000-sf facility will help pioneer technology in the Unmanned Autonomous Systems (UAS) space.
Designed by Cooper Carry, the project is a cross between a traditional educational environment and a research institution that supports the development of high-tech autonomous machines capable of traveling by land, sea, or air. Cooper Carry created a master plan for the complex oriented around a new campus quadrangle that replaced a former surface parking lot. The design allows users to easily traverse the facility and access varying research rooms.
