We are ready for tomorrow’s demo on controlling Boston Dynamics #Spot using #AR at #ICRA2023. Hope to see you there! #reserch #AugmentedReality Imperial EEE Imperial College London


The first day of our demo at the Great Exhibition Road Festival 2023 Great Exhibition Road Festival was very successful! Many visitors came to see our research at the Persoal Robotics Lab Personal Robotics and tried our robotic wheelchair or thermal camera. Today we will open from 12pm to 18pm!


News on our work from Personal Robotics Imperial EEE at the Great Exhibition Road Festival. Many thanks for all support from Prof. Yiannis Demiris Yiannis Demiris! EEE at the Great Exhibition Road Festival 2023 imperial.ac.uk/news/245713/ee…

Delighted that our paper "Visual-#Tactile Learning of Garment Unfolding for #RobotAssisted Dressing" using contrastive MPC with Yiannis Demiris Personal Robotics @imperialEEE I-X is accepted to #IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters. Video: youtu.be/V-HCLkB17SY

For all our Spanish speaking friends: today Rodrigo Chacon will be giving a talk for OpenExO on #Assistive #Robotics and #Trust in #Autonomous Systems. He will be talking about our lab’s work, his #research, and the work we do with UKRI TAS Node in Trust. Link: lnkd.in/e7BDySBt
