Three strong themes have been chosen around which collaborative interfaculty research will be organised. The themes are based on on-going activities with momentum, are linked to regional strengths and fit within the national & 4TU context. These themes are:
- interactive robots (robots for diagnostics and supported living)
- swarm robots (collaborating satellites and UAVs for ship tracing, pollution and traffic monitoring)
- robots that work (distributed interactive work support, i.e. for robot support in warehousing, greenhouses and food production)
