Top Tier Multidisciplinary Research at the Edge of Technology

Multi-Robot Systems

Our main interests are in the areas of decentralized control, collaborative and heterogeneous multi-robot systems, and blockchain for distributed robotic systems.

Autonomous Robots

Our research focuses in localization and mapping in dense urban environments, mapping of unstructured environments, computational offloading, and hardware accelerators for ROS.

Edge Computing

From the definition of novel edge computing architectures to the deployment of artificial intelligence at the edge, our research focus is on embedded and distributed intelligence.

AeroPolis

Sustainable and autonomous carbon-neutral aerial ecosystems and energy solutions for future metropolises

AutoSOS

Autonomous Multi-UAV System Supporting Maritime Search and Rescue

ForestNav

Mapping of unstructured environments: towards autonomous forest harvesting machinery

RoboMesh

Beyond 5G Distributed Ledger Technology driven Mesh for Industrial Robot Collaboration

R³Swarms

Robust, Resilient and Reconfigurable Swarms

WildNav
