Project Description
El grup de Robòtica de l’IRI és un grup de llarga tradició, reconegut ja en la convocatòria de l’any 1997. La recerca que es realitza en aquest grup s’organitza al voltant de dues línies complementaries de recerca: "Percepció i Manipulació" i "Cinemàtica i Disseny de Robots". Un dels objectius és millorar la comprensió que es té de la geometria de la informació perceptual, i la construcció de models d’objectes 3D que permetin executar accions amb objectes quotidians en el marc de la robòtica domèstica i de serveis. Seguint l'enfoc de la robòtica cognitiva, es treballa en la planificació i la selecció d'accions, l’aprenentatge per reforçament, i l’aprenentatge per demostració. En cinemàtica i disseny de robots es tracta l’anàlisi, el disseny i la construcció de mecanismes robotitzats: l’anàlisi cinemàtic (posició i moviment instantani), la definició de dissenys òptims (síntesi de mecanismes), la construcció de prototips físics, i la generació de moviments lliures de col•lisió.
