SAPHARI, for the study of all essential aspects of the safe and intuitive physical interaction between humans and robots. SHERPA, a ground and air robotic platform to support search and rescue activities in a hostile environment such as the Alpine scenario.

Projects that have paved the way for research lines such as aerial, assistive, cognitive, industrial, service robotics and have brought the team an average annual funding of 1.4 million euros over the last ten years.
