Cognitive Modelling in Ergonomics
By using the cognitive architecture ACT-R, project 127 strives to create detailed computer models of human cognition and behaviour that are based on psychological research as well as on applicability considerations. MuCar3 was chosen as a first implementation platform, while the cognitive factory is a further ideal test-bed for our cognitive models. [more]
Innovation@CoTeSys
This project-based, student seminar explores the potential of artificial cognitive capabilities to drive the next generation of consumer products. [more]
Junior Research Group
Building on highly dextrous, human-like robotic hands equipped with tactile sensors, this project lays the ground for building a system which can learn to grasp, handle and manipulate objects as dextrously as humans can. [more]
A Framework and Programming Infrastructure for the Plan-based Control of Cognitive Technical Systems
We investigate the plan-based control of autonomous mobile robots performing everyday pick-and-place tasks in human environments. Our approach applies AI planning techniques to transform default plans that can be inferred from instructions into flexible, high-performance robot plans. To find high performance plans the planning system applies transformations such as carrying plates to the table by stacking them or leaving cabinet doors open while setting the table, which require substantial changes of the control structure of the intended activities.
