My research interests are in computational intelligence applied to robotic systems. Here at the Robotics Institute I am developing an intelligent sensor system for dense high resolution force / pressure sensing of the foot contact for biped robot systems. The dense force profile image is expected to provide the necessary sensor feedback for biped walking on unknown and uneven surfaces.
