Chair of Autonomous Systems and Mechatronics
Welcome to the website of the Chair of Autonomous Systems and Mechatronics (ASM)
Autonomous and mechatronic systems are entering our daily lives and get into increasingly right interaction with us. Our mission at ASM is to research human-centered mechatronics and robotics striving for solutions that provide the desired performance along with user-friendly interaction characteristics. We put emphasis on wearable systems such as prostheses or exoskeletons, cognitive systems such as collaborative or humanoid robots, and generally on tasks with close human-robot interaction. Beyond examining mechatronic components and controls, such scenarios crucially demand considering human factors to meet user requirements and achieve synergetic interfacing and interaction of humans and machines.
Our Interactive Gait Assistance Experience Lab is taking shape at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg... you might remember the very big parcel on the foto that I posted the week before last week.
It contained a Humotech Caplex system that was meanwhile installed and combined with our Motek Medical B.V. GRAIL....
A week of big deliveries at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg ... Today, we got a compactor from Sielaff GmbH & Co. KG Automatenbau Herrieden.
It is used in bottle returning machines, which we investigate in our project Learning Predictive Maintenance of Fleets of Networked Systems funded by the Bayerisc...
Today, we got a nice delivery that will add new possibilities to our Interactive Gait Assistance Experience Lab at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. On Monday, things will be unpacked, installed, and training will start.
A very special evening at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg with the ARIADNEtechnat mentoring program. We were welcoming our new group of MSc mentees while saying farewell to the recent cohort of Doc/Postdoc mentees.
It was a pleasure to see how many High Potential Women are part of our university. The progr...
Lately, we welcomed a group of Female School Pupils at the Faculty of Engineering at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. During our project days “MachMINT Science made by women”, they experienced how a university feels and learn about impactful female scientists.
