Simulation, Systemoptimierung und Robotik

The Simulation, Systems Optimization and Robotics Group (SIM) of Technische Universität Darmstadt's Department of Computer Science conducts research on cooperating autonomous mobile robots, biologically inspired robots and numerical optimization and control methods. Its research has been funded through more than 30 projects by national, European and US research agencies. The research results have received several awards including the first prize of the European EURON/EUROP Robotics Technology Transfer Award, the Hessian Cooperation Award, the Louis Vuitton Best Humanoid Award and successes in numerous international competitions for autonomous mobile robots including several of the most relevant for collaborative and autonomous robots in harsh environments (e.g, ARGOS Challenge, ENRICH, RoboCup Rescue and Soccer, World Robot Summit).
