ALTAIR: A Laboratory for Teleoperations and Autonomous Intelligent Robots.
The objective ALTAIR Lab is to conduct research and development on non-conventional robotic systems capable of interacting with the surrounding environment in various ways, ranging from teleoperation to autonomous behaviors.
In recent years, we have reintegrated industrial robotics, human-machine interaction, and artificial intelligence into our research focus. This shift is a response to the introduction of cooperative robots in Industry 4.0 companies.
