Research Topic: Defence-related and Security Robots
IMP Robotics Laboratory has significant experience in design, development and re-construction of different types (electro-mechanical or electro-hydraulic) defense-related and security robots. That assumes mechanical design and prototyping, robot controller development and GPS navigation, building of human-robot interface, wireless communication and wireless data/images transmission, sensor-data acquisition, electronics, etc. Pupin engineers have wide experience in development new robots as well as upgrading and re-construction of the second-hand robotic devices to improve their current technical performances and prolong their working life-cycle, being these mechatronic devices are rather expensive. With a permanent progress in ICT technologies IMP Robotics Laboratory has built wide competency in development of customized robot-sensor networks and multi-agent robotic systems. Our professional interest is oriented towards the robot applications in the security and environmental remote surveillance tasks and monitoring.
