KOROS; Kollaborierende Robotersysteme
Duration 2012-open, 510.000,- funded by UIP

Interdisciplinary Robot Lab (electrical engineering, informatics, mechanical engineering, architecture). Analysis of the interaction between humans and robots, whereas robots are humanoids as well as industrial robots.
Architecture theory will research on orientation and cooperation as well as collaboration and interaction of humans, robots and augmented environments as well as on the robotically enhanced body schema and spatiality. Questions that are leading to the examination of robots as media-agents among human communication.
