Robot marathon

From November 25 to November 29, the six robots from the EU STRANDS project will battle it out for the title of last robot standing in the STRANDS Robot Marathon. The challenge is to autonomously patrol a populated environment for as long as possible, with the aim to cover the most distance in the shortest…

Robots that learn from experience

Specialist robots will learn how to act intelligently in real-world environments, supporting security guards or care home assistants, in a multi-million Euro project. The aim of the research is to create mobile robots that are able to operate intelligently and independently, based on an understanding of 3D space and how this space changes over time,…
