RI Seminar
Uncertainty and Contact with the World
Abstract: As robots move out of the lab and factory and into more challenging environments, uncertainty in the robot's state, dynamics, and contact conditions becomes a fact of life. We will never be able to perfectly predict the forces on the robot's feet as it walks through unknown mud or control the deflections of a […]

RI Seminar
Towards Open World Robot Safety
Abstract: Robot safety is a nuanced concept. We commonly equate safety with collision-avoidance, but in complex, real-world environments (i.e., the “open world’’) it can be much more: for example, a mobile manipulator should understand when it is not confident about a requested task, that areas roped off by caution tape should never be breached, and […]

Alfred Rizzi
RAI Institute
Developing Physically Capable and Intelligent Robots
Abstract: Dr. Rizzi will provide an overview of the ongoing work at the Robotics and AI Institute (RAI Institute) and its ongoing research efforts focused on the design and control of the next generation of intelligent and capable robotics systems. The focus is on the development of systems capable of performing complex dynamic tasks at [...]
