Mobile Robotics

Mobile Robotics students take a research-oriented approach, learning the basics that they need to build and deploy smart robots capable of understanding their environment, moving around within it and acting intelligently. The degree program is focused on probability-based and learning techniques as a way of enabling mobile robots to function reliably in real life.

With the aim of developing robots that can act with intelligence and autonomy, the program teaches skills in a number of areas: perception, state estimation, modeling, action generation, planning, manipulation and interaction with the surrounding environment. Engineering and computer science are combined to produce theoretical and practical solutions to some of the burning issues facing today’s society, from sustainable technology and agricultural robotics through to service robots and autonomous vehicles.

The degree program combines robotics theory and practice with applications of relevance to society such as agricultural robotics (PhenoRob Cluster of Excellence) and other fields, including autonomous vehicles.
