Robotic manipulators
To be able to achieve goals in complex, human-inhabited environments, a robot needs to autonomously decide and perform a sequence of actions. In our lab, we are working to solve this problem using methods from the integrated Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) field, with a main focus on the reactive execution of TAMP plans.
Research objectives
- Development of algorithms for reactive sequential robotic manipulations
