EXPLORE: Robotique mobile pour l'exploration de l'environnement

The EXPLORE team conducts research on exploratory robotics in underwater, aerial, and terrestrial environments. Special care is taken to ensure that the developed and/or controlled robotic systems achieve energetic and decisional autonomy. The team members come from complementary robotics research areas, from software architecture analysis and design to navigation, guidance and control design, as well as dependability, locomotion theory, and multi-modal data fusion. Collectively, they aim to develop reliable mobile robotic systems capable of carrying out complex and useful missions, and are met with the challenge presented by the intuitive trade-off between system reliability and mission complexity.
