The Robotics Laboratory develops research activities in mobile robotics and computer vision, working mainly on aspects of perception, self-localization, navigation, manipulation, real-time control of movements, learning, simulation of mobile robots, face detection and recognition.
The laboratory has two robotics teams, the first is made up of a service robot and the second a robotic soccer team, both teams regularly participate in the RoboCup world championship.
- NAOS Robotics Team: Robotic Soccer: Learning complex behaviors using mobile robots.
- Homebreakers Robotics Team: Service Robot: People detection and recognition, manipulation, people tracking, navigation.
- 3D reconstruction using webcam and points of interest.
- Reinforced learning for mobile robots.
