Our faculty are advancing research in control systems, machine learning, and robotics, exploring cutting-edge topics such as autonomous systems, adaptive and optimal control, reinforcement learning, human-robot interaction, swarm robotics, neural networks for control, robotic manipulation and locomotion, intelligent manufacturing and automation, cyber-physical systems, sensor fusion and perception, and applications in aerospace, automotive, biomedical, and industrial systems.
We use RoboDK for simulation and offline programming of industrial robots.
