- URUS (Ubiquitous Networking Robotics in Urban Settings) IST-1-045062-URUS-STP
This project focuses on designing and developing a network of robots that in a cooperative way interact with human beings and the environment for tasks of guidance and assistance, transportation of goods or people, and surveillance in urban areas. The specific research objectives to develop are: (1) cooperative navigation and optimal resource allocation; (2) cooperative localization, exploration and map building; and (3) wireless communication between users, robots and the environment.

- NERO (Networked mobile robots for service and intervention tasks). DPI2006-07928
The complex nature of tasks for mobile robotics makes necessary to develop nets of organized agents working in cooperation. This project is related with the European Project URUS and we propose to work in three fields: (1) Multi-robot localization and navigation. (2) Perception-Action techniques using range and visual information given by all the agents in the network. (3) Real time communications for mobile agents.

- EVA (Biological Interaction Human – Robot for Mobility) DPI2006-15630-C02-02
This project focuses on the biological interaction human – robot. The objective is to supervise, evaluate and control machines using biological parameters of humans such as cerebral, cardiac, or respiratory activity. The team will develop brain-computer interfaces, machine learning, signal processing and control strategies to involve these parameters in the motion control paradigm of robots. The applications of this research are all situations where robots supervise humans or humans control robots based on their biological parameters.
