Imperial Robotics Forum

My department has upcoming PhD scholarship opportunities for UK candidates. Please get in touch if you would like to join my lab to research haptic interfaces, robotic manipulation, tactile sensing or human motion. Note that candidates must have a first class degree. More details here: https://lnkd.in/dP4xNNa I recommend that you email me first to discuss your interests prior to making a formal application.

Would you like to try your planning or machine learning algorithms on a challenging robot manipulation task? See the work of Haining Luo, PhD student at our Personal Robotics Laboratory on benchmarking and simulating bimanual robot shoe lacing, an interesting and fun deformable manipulation task. Details on a paper just out at the IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters: https://lnkd.in/evEEFm8E, or through DOI: https://lnkd.in/eZZ3THHU Open source extensible simulator using the ABB YuMi robot, with some baselines, and a longer video: https://lnkd.in/exSXy_fQ
