Robotics and autonomy research
Research into how machines perceive, navigate and act in demanding real-world environments.
The challenge
Beyond the controlled environment
Robots that perform well on a test bench often struggle in the field, with changing light, weather and terrain. CobraSphere research focuses on the conditions real operations meet.
Focus
Perception and navigation
Sensing, vision and positioning combined, so autonomous systems understand where they are and what is around them, reliably and safely.
Robotics and autonomy
Research areas
Where CobraSphere research is focused.
Perception
Vision and sensing that hold up in changing conditions.
Navigation
Reliable positioning and path planning in unstructured environments.
Autonomy
Decision-making that keeps a person in control of what matters.
Safety and assurance
Systems designed to be tested, verified and trusted in operation.
Partners
Research with industry
CobraSphere research is carried out with industrial and research partners, so it stays grounded in the problems real operations face.
