Swiss Federal Institute of Technology: Biologically Inspired Robotics Group

The School of Computer and Communication Sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology is "one of the major European centers of teaching and research in information technology.� This website describes the research of the Biologically Inspired Robotics Group. Its research focuses on the intersection between computational neuroscience, robotics, nonlinear dynamical systems, and adaptive algorithms. Inspired by biological systems and trained in the fields of modeling, optimization, and control, the researchers are working "to produce novel types of robots with adaptive locomotion and sensorimotor coordination abilities, and in using the robots to investigate hypotheses of how central nervous systems implement these abilities in animals.� The Research section describes some of the group's work in numerical simulations of locomotion and movement control, sensorimotor coordination, dynamic simulators of articulated rigid bodies, statistical learning algorithms, evolutionary algorithms, nonlinear dynamical systems, humanoid robotics, amphibious articulated robotics, and modular robotics. Some sections are still under construction. Journal publications, as well as descriptions of student projects and videos demonstrating their accomplishments, are posted online. This site is also reviewed in the January 28, 2005_NSDL MET Report_.
