Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the recent robotics research and technology development of advanced robot systems at the J. Stefan Institute in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The presented projects integrate knowledge from different fields of robotics, automation and biocybernetics bringing into life completely new design and control concepts and approaches. Applications are seen in industrial and service robotics and in particular in the development of future humanoid robots.
