Advanced State Estimation Techniques for Battery Packs in Electric Vehicles and Energy Storage Systems
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Accurate estimation of battery pack states, such as State of Charge (SOC), State of Health (SOH), and State of Power (SOP), is essential for the safe and efficient operation of electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems. Read more
Advanced Proprioception for Robotic Legs
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.
