Description

The IRI Computational Robotics Laboratory was created to investigate the computational and implementation aspects that arise in the design, construction and control of advanced robotic systems.

These systems include parallel robots, anthropomorphic robotic arms, intelligent prostheses, biomechanical support systems for movement or rehabilitation, or other robots of various topology that, through sensory capacity and sufficient adaptation, can interact with humans in a flexible and safe way.

The activity of the laboratory focuses on the analysis and construction of robotic prototypes to validate positional analysis algorithms, collision detection, characterization of the configuration space, calculation of singularities, obtaining workspaces, kinematics and direct or inverse dynamics, or planning and optimal control of trajectories.
