Robotics is a rapidly growing field of research and development that is increasingly impacting our day-to-day lives and the way we do business with the creation of new products and services.
This trend is also visible in the sheer number and diversity of research groups, projects and activities that are pursued at Eindhoven University of Technology. Our research varies from the creation of highly autonomous vehicles (AGV’s, cars) to medical devices that enhance the surgeons capabilities and to social robots that are able to teach children with autism to recognize different kinds of human emotions.
As robots enter the human domain, developing a robotic system not only involves mechanics, electronics and computer sciences, but also introduces social interaction aspects and poses many ethical questions. Creating robotics systems, is a multi-disciplinary exercise by nature. The TU/e High Tech Systems Center plays a pivotal role in connecting and creating joint industry-university driven robotics research projects to create tomorrow’s technologies.
TU/e High Tech Systems Center welcomes you to the 2nd edition of the Robotics Technology Symposium that will be held on 24th of January 2019 (10 AM - 6 PM) in the Auditorium (Entrance 6 & 12) at the TU/e Campus. This event is dedicated to sharing our latest results in research, innovations and upcoming initiatives aimed to stimulate connections between industry representatives and university researchers.

High Tech Systems Center
In next-generation high-tech and mechatronic systems, extreme functionalities and performance requirements will be realized by using a model-based multi-physics systems approach.
New sensing technologies and actuator designs for multi-physics processes (forces, flows, temperatures, acoustics, optics) will need to be integrated with and used by distributed on-line model-based control and optimization tools. The control systems are adaptive, auto-tuned, are implemented in optimized hardware and software architectures, and use effective (wireless) communication.
