IntelliMan – AI-Powered Manipulation System for Advanced Robotic Service, Manufacturing and Prosthetics
(EU Horizon: 101070136)
A key challenge in intelligent robotics is creating robots that are capable of directly interacting with the world around them to achieve their goals. The main objective of the IntelliMan project is focusing on the question of “How a robot can efficiently learn to manipulate in a purposeful and highly performant way”. The focus of AIROB Lab in this project is on intent detection in the field of human-machine interaction through research in the areas of sensor modalities, biosignal analysis and machine learning.
We apply this research in particular to the control of virtual and real upper limb prostheses. On the one hand, this includes the development of new algorithms and methods and, on the other hand, the validation on test persons (with and without limb differences) within user studies.
Furthermore, we are leading the work package Shared Autonomy between humans and robots. In this part of the project, we will apply findings from our research to other use cases with the aim of increasing safety in human-robot collaborations. Link IntelliMan
