The Laurentian Intelligent Mobile Robotics Lab (LIMRL) is a multidisciplinary research group under the School of Engineering and Computer Science at Laurentian University. Our mission is to develop intelligent mobile robotic systems that can perceive, decide, and act in real-world environments.
We focus on a wide range of mobile robotics technologies—from wheeled and legged platforms to autonomous navigation, machine vision, and reinforcement learning. Our research spans both theoretical development and real-world applications, with strong involvement in competitive robotics and collaborative projects with academia and industry.
