2024 seminars
-
Communications and Reconfigurability for Modular Robots and Spacecraft
Modular reconfigurable systems are key for space robotics and these systems need decentralized, adaptable communication protocols that work across physical and protocol levels and integrate new components.
-
(Some) of the Practicalities of Deploying Autonomous Systems
Dr Calum Imrie will give an overview about the practicalities of deploying autonomous systems
-
Human-centred visual learning and its applications
Dr. Hyung Jin Chang will present his research on human-centred visual learning, the primary goal is to create vision-based algorithms that prioritise the usability and usefulness of AI systems by addressing human needs and requirements.
-
Zero-shot, One-shot, and Few-shot Robot Learning
Dr Edward Johns will present his research from the past year in his lab which aims towards more practical robot learning without huge data requirements.
-
Towards Physics-Based Manipulation in Mixed (Rigid-and-Soft) Multi-Object Containers
Professor Mehmet Dogar will present their work on robotic object manipulation, particularly, robot motion planners and controllers that use predictions about the motion of contacted objects.
-
Design, Sensing, and Control of Hybrid (Soft/Rigid) Robots
Dr Babar Jamil will present the work in designing new robotic systems that share the physical features of soft and rigid structures, thereby, taking advantage of compliance of soft actuation and accuracy of rigid structures.
