• 2009/08/09 “Awarded First Place in PMC Home Service Robot Competition”
  

The Robot Group has been focused on

1. Autonomous Robot
   
2. Human Robot Interaction
   

Our goal is to make robots capable of providing services in the real environment and improving interactions between robots and human. The mobile robot research has gained lots of attention since the breakthrough both on algorithms and hardware. Therefore, we want to push it further, and make robots more intelligent to deal with the real world problems. In order to introduce robots to the near future, the robots must have the ability to interact with people. As a result, our research also focused on H.R.I. and AI, so the robot could understand the human intentions and infer the proper reactions.

1. Robot Vision
   Our group have been focused on robot vision system because we can get rich information from cameras.
   
   1. Object Recognition
      Upper Limbs Tracking / Gesture Recognition / Human Detection / Face Recognition
   2. Visual SLAM
      Simultaneous localization and mapping with monocular camera
2. Mobile Robot System
   We cooperate with Advanced Control Lab of EE department ( Also Prof. Fu's Lab ).
   
   1. Control System
      Robot Navigation / Behavior Control / Path Planning
   2. Mapping and Localization
      Simultaneous Localization and Mapping(SLAM) / Localization
3. Human Robot Interaction
   
   1. Knowledge Base Reasoning
   2. Reinforce Learning
