Anfiteatro Abreu Faro (Complexo Interdisciplinar)
We research on autonomous mobile robots with a seamless integration of perception, cognition, and action.

In this talk, I will first introduce our CoBot service robots and their novel localization and symbiotic autonomy, which enable them to consistently move in our buildings, and learn from asking humans or the web for help to overcome their limitations. I frame the research as human-AI interaction also including an interpretability approach by language generation to alert and respond to human explanation requests. I will conclude with a brief discussion of AI, machine learning, and robotics, and their potential social impact, as artificial intelligence is increasingly part of the artifacts and utilities in our daily life.
