Advanced Proprioception for Robotic Legs

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Humans are complex mechanical systems of interconnected bodies with a high degree of freedom (DOF). Our inner structures/bodies have naturally evolved with advanced proprioception and control, enabling us to perform a wide range of actions/movements, such as running, walking, sitting, and jumping.

Understanding eye-hand coordination in object interception - a computational modelling approach

This PhD project with Dr Yeo will focus on understanding how we perform interception. Interceptive movements--such as catching a gently thrown ball, quickly grabbing a tilting cup to avoid spilling or even just handshaking someone--feel like trivial everyday tasks for us that seemingly look too simple to study.
