Robotics and Control
The group of Robotics and Control is a group multidisciplinary with extensive experience in industrial robotics, design and control of mechatronic systems, haptic devices, virtual reality and augmented reality, and optical technologies applied to metrology (dimensional control) and defectology (surface quality). We are currently working on the following topics:
Collaborative robotics for surgical interventions.
development of haptic devices for industrial assembly operations.
development of drive-by-wire systems with haptic feedback.
Industrial process simulators for assessment of alternatives.
Generation of virtual twins of industrial plant elements.
Augmented reality for guiding operators in manoeuvres or maintenance processes.
Dimensional control of parts at elevated temperatures.
High-precision machine vision for gear measurement.
In recent years, group has collaborated with Egile Corporation, Cyber Surgery, Kiro Grifols, Ficosa Internacional, Lander Simulation & Training Solutions, Airbus, CTIngenieros, Tesicnor, Labekoa, etc.
The group of Robotics and Control collaborates actively with the group of Intelligent Systems for Industry 4.0 of Ceit-BRTA.
