Robotics
←All ResearchEmbodied intelligence, today!
Robotics is likely the biggest category of my work. It encompasses everything from hardware development to algorithmic studies all with the central goal of creating agents that can better interact with our physical world (even in indirect ways, like traffic lights).
I have so many open areas of research here, and am open to inquiries.
