A short video introducing Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Philipp Beckerle and the work at our chair has been published by the FAU.        

Maria Pozzi from SIRS lab at the University of Siena is currently visiting our Chair of Autonomous Systems. Maria has introduced herself to the University by giving a seminar talk. And last week she gave a summer school on robotic grasping.  

On June 23rd, Philipp Beckerle completed his habilitation with a presentation at TU Dortmund. Meanwhile, he has received his certificate. If you want to learn more about human-robot body experience, you will find the aggregation of his research results in this Springer book.

The Chair of Autonomous Systems and Mechatronics welcomes Martin Rohrmüller. Martin will work on robot hand and arm control and human-robot interaction.

Maria Pozzi from the University of Siena will give a summer school on "Robot Grasping: Mechanics and Control" to a limited number of FAU students. The course (2.5 ECTS) can be included in the Master EEI in the area "Wahlmodul aus der FAU". Applications are possible starting from Sept. 3rd via Stu...

The Chair of Autonomous Systems and Mechatronics at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg welcomes Anany Dwivedi as team member. Anany will work on learning human-machine interfaces for assistive devices and telerobotics.  

Adna Bliek received the Frauen-MINT-Award by Deutsche Telekom in the field of Artificial Intelligence for her Master's Thesis "Backchanneling in Human-Robot Interaction". In her thesis, she investigated how the robot's behavior as a speaker influences the backchanneling behavior of a human listener....

Springer just published the book "Human-Robot Body Experience" by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Philipp Beckerle on the relations between human body experience and assistive robotic devices. It provides fundamental knowledge on bolidy experience, discusses human-in-the-loop experiments to improve our understanding...

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Philipp Beckerle gave a seminar on "Empirical Research Methods" at SIRSLab of the University of Siena. In an interactive Zoom format, we had interesting discussions about how to design insightful user research to be applied in the engineering design of human-machine interfaces. ...
