Mobile Robotics

Research focuses on the autonomy for mobile robots, that is, being able to deploy robots in indoors, urban or outdoors environments and robots being able to execute any given task efficiently, reliably and safely. To achieve this, it is important to investigate on Perception (how to perceive and understand the world) and Action (how to actuate in succeed in a given task) and the combination of both topics into new solutions.

Research areas

Robotics is a very broad field which consists of many different topics. All in projects share a common characteristic and that is an aim to implement and evaluate these solutions under real-world conditions. After all, robotics is the embodiment of AI.

The general interest of the group includes a wide variety of topics, such as:

Robot Path Planning

Decision Making in Robotics

Reinforcement Learning

Imitation Learning

Multimodal Image-text robot navigation

Sensor Fusion of different combinations of IMUs, Images and PointClouds

3D Mapping, Localization and SLAM

Visual Odometry

Neural IMU Integration

Optimization

Sensors, etc.
