Let’s join forces!

Regions: let’s join forces! Robotics is considered as a huge social and economical opportunity. Leadership depends on a large range of high-level competences as well as an extensive propensity to be used in numerous applications. Therefore leadership requires both “state of the art” specializations and “efficient” collaborations. To turn this potential into academic, economic and social value, the regions need to focus on regional smart specialisation (SRI, S3) and smart collaborative leadership in robotics. It is strategically wise to create a network of regions for which robotics is a

Crédit Crédit photo : Laurent Moynatz priority. The analysis of the landscape of the regional priorities and competences would be extremely useful to find out the best way to join forces, take advantage of synergies, create a critical mass, exchange best practices, promote robotics players of our territories at an international level. Our main objective through this Robotics Map is to promote a network of Regions, where Robotics is already (or could become) a priority. This can, I believe, be achieved by connecting existing centres of excellence, clusters, regional initiatives, sharing technical infrastructures and resources at a regional, European and international level... and maybe invent new ones together...

INTRODUCTION

THE ROBOTICS MAP IS YOURS!

Becoming a member is free of charge, all you have to do is register and contribute.

The idea of a map was first initiated by the workshop on “The role of Regions in Supporting Robotics” organised in Brussels on October 30th 2013 by the European Commission, DG CONNECT, the Tuscany Region and the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna – BioRobotics Institute. The collaborative “Robotics Map” project was later launched during the euRobotics week 2014 in . This initial version of the catalogue results from a partnership between Madeeli, Robotics Place and LAAS-CNRS (Midi-Pyrenees, ), Thésame and Innoecho (Rhone Alpes, France).

The “Robotics Map 2015”’s community based ambition is to identify key stakeholders and individuals to build a map of competences and trigger smart collaboration… resulting in a coherent team structured for international competition in robotics. To enhance partnerships among members of the community, every contributor is to identify key contacts, competences, inputs and expectations. The purpose is not to be exhaustive but to give key information to be easily identified and reached. Every member of the community can create or modify a form at any time. This first release aggregates data entered by members to generate a catalogue. Subsequently, twice a year an updated version will be released that will integrate newcomers and modifications that will have taken place in the meantime.

COOPERATION PROFILE: SOMETHING TO OFFER? A REQUEST?

The Centre’s goal is to train innovation-ready robotics researchers to be part of a multi-disciplinary enterprise, requiring sound knowledge of physics (kinematics, dynamics), engineering (control, signal processing, mechanical design), computer science (algorithms for perception, planning, decision making and intelligent behaviour, software engineering), as well as allied areas ranging from biology and biomechanics to cognitive psychology. To achieve impact with robotics also requires non-technical skills, for example an understanding of technology translation, creativity and entrepreneurial processes. These are an essential component of the CDT programme, captured in the #Cauldron training programme. ROBOTARIUM comprises four integrated and interconnected components. It is available to researchers inside and outside the Edinburgh Centre for Robotics as well as industry as a national UK facility. Interaction Spaces for humans and robots to work together in physically separate indoor spaces (ROBOTARIUM West and East).

MOBOTARIUM, a human driven sensorised and connected mobile vehicle for data assimilation/situation awareness and interaction for an operator with robots and intelligent agents in the field. These are underpinned by a set of Enabling Facilities comprising rapid prototyping and micro-assembly equipment for fabrication and inexpensive duplication of novel (bioinspired) robot embodiments, their sensors and their on-board computing. Also, state of the art computing accelerators with programmable hardware to develop power efficient computation suitable for autonomous deployments. Together, these create an integrated capability unique in the world, for exploring collaborative interaction between remote teams of humans, robots and their environments at all levels. It is transformational in the range of robot scales and environments that can be experimentally configured, and in the way the study of physical interaction through robot embodiment can be linked to the study of human interaction/ expression, robot collaboration and real in-field remote operations for mapping and intervention.

Portugal Institute for Systems and Robotics Academics

KEY FIGURES

The Institute for Systems and Robotics (ISR) is one of the R&D units of the Laboratory of Robotics and Engineering Systems (LARSyS). Most of its research matches the main objectives and the research plan of this national research laboratory. Such objectives and plan embody in their structure a strategy that hinges upon three main lines of action: science, technology, and interaction with society and industry, all sharing a systems approach to research using tools that borrow from solid mathematical theory. This tripartite structure stimulates the cross-fertilization of ideas, motivates challenging problems, and creates further motivation for inter-disciplinary work with scientists from other complementary areas such as natural and/or social sciences. ISR is composed of about 30 university professors, plus more than 10 post-doctoral researchers, more than 50 PhD students and several administrative and technical staff.

MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS

The application themes of our research address grand challenges which solutions have strong societal and economic potential impacts, and raise scientific and technological issues of major magnitude. In particular, ISR research focuses on technological solutions for problems within the scope of the open oceans and the deep sea, sustainable urban systems, and biomedicine.

TECHNOLOGIES AND SYSTEM ABILITIES

This diversity of applications, the range of research topics covered, and the relevance given to human capital, are distinguishing features of ISR that constitute its hallmark. Some common problems are easily identified. One such example concerns sensor and actuator networks, used to monitor the oceans or urban spaces for a myriad of environmental variables. The complexity of such networks raises optimization problems that require new mathematical results and algorithms. The inclusion of robots as actuators brings to the scene fascinating problems faced by robotic system designers today, from navigation to task planning and execution, interaction and cooperation with humans and other robots. These capabilities turn the networks into active aerial, land, and sea entities where monitoring and surveillance performance can be dynamically improved by moving the robots to adjust the network geometry. Solving these problems requires the ability to blend harmonically contributions from signal, systems and control theories, engineering and computer science fields such as computer vision, artificial intelligence, or the theory of computation, often resorting to inspiration drawn from the natural and social sciences. Another example lies in the bilateral relationship of robotics with the biological and biomedical sciences, where robot assistants and robot swarms are used to study models of human and non-human animal behavior, while exploiting bio-inspired methods to improve their natural interaction with humans and advance the state-of-the-art of complex robot systems.
