Robotic Systems Group
The Robotic Systems Group in the Department of Information Engineering at the College of Computer Science and Engineering follows a long standing commitment to real world robotics. It was founded in 1996 by Alex Zelinksy who is currently the director of the CSIRO Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Centre.
Current research fields are robust autonomous robots in several real world scenarios, as well as shape memory alloy actuators, rigid body dynamics as well as distributed control and communication. All details are found on the specific project pages.
There are multiple ways in which you can become involved in the activities in our group. There are always possibilities for student theses and projects. Honours, Masters, PhD applicants will find a challenging and demaning range of topics here which will bring academic knowledge in contact with physical experiments.
The group also has a tradition of commercialization projects. The up to date largest of those companies grown out of the the group is Seeing Machines which started back in the year 2000 and employs more than 50 people today.
Our activities are currently also presented at the EXPO21xx. Please have a look at our virtual booth at this fair.
