Organisation profile
The main research topics of the Robotics & Multibody Mechanics (R&MM) research HRI (cHRI). Core technology is the design and control of variable impedance adaptability. Most of the prototypes build in the lab are designed and actuators for embodied intelligence principles as safety, energy efficiency and group can be divided into physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) and cognitive constructed in house. Their most well known robots are the bipeds Lucy andVeronica, the step rehabilitation robots Knexo and ALTACRO and the robotic Probogotchi have been designed and deployed for cHRI and developing Robot Assisted Therapy (RAT) with children with special needs as target group.ankle-foot prosthesis AMPfoot. The social robot Probo and the electronic device
