Spotlight - Humanoid Lab

In March 2021 we started a new focus area with the inauguration of the new "Humanoid Lab."
The researchers of the lab are motivated to investigate new ways of multimodal human-machine interaction making use of modern machine learning approaches in combination with classical methods of Artificial Intelligence. Our unique target platform, the android robot Andrea, arrived in our lab in October 2022.
