Welcome to the world of the research group in Robotics and AI at Luleå University of Technology
“Our vision is to bring robotics into peoples everyday life, create a continuous impact in humans' well being and significantly close the gap between advanced theory and real world applications.”
We envision a world where intelligent machines extend human capability into the most challenging, unstructured, and unexplored environments on Earth and beyond. Our mission is to transform cutting‑edge research into real‑world robotic systems that operate with autonomy, resilience, and purpose.
Guided by the pioneering scientific contributions of our team, with work spans autonomous aerial systems, underground and confined‑space navigation, Humanoids, AI‑driven perception, resilient control, and space robotics, we push the boundaries of what robots can achieve. Our research, from autonomous UAV navigation in dark underground mines to advanced model predictive control, multi‑robot coordination, intelligent prognostics, and spacecraft autonomy, forms a scientific backbone for the next generation of field‑deployable robotic systems.
Our vision aligns with our core philosophy: to bring robotics into everyday life and close the gap between advanced theory and real‑world applications. We believe robots should not only function in controlled environments but they should thrive in the wild. From subterranean mines to Arctic landscapes, from aging infrastructure to extraterrestrial terrains, our goal is to create robotic systems that deliver impact where humans cannot easily go.
Our team and FieldRobotics.eu stands as a hub for innovation, collaboration, and technological excellence. We unite researchers, industry partners, and visionaries who share a common ambition: to redefine the limits of autonomy and build robotic systems that serve society, enhance safety, and expand human reach.
Together, we are engineering the future by creating one robot, one breakthrough, one mission at a time.
Our aim is to make our dreams a reality
