 The SocRob team is mainly driven by research on the following topics:
-  * **Perception and sensor fusion**, that is, the problem of extracting meaningful information from one or more sensors, and how to fuse together information from several sources, taking into account their associated uncertainty. We take a probabilistic approach on quantitatively representing uncertainty, as well as performing inference, on the solid theoretical framework provided by Bayesian statistics
-  * **Decision making under uncertainty**, since both perception and action affects on the real world are inherently uncertain, we take a decision-theoretic approach on the maximization of the expected utility

-  * **Human-robot interaction**, once robots operate in human-inhabited environments, robots need to interact with humans; in this context we pursue multiple communication modalities, including speech, web-based remote interface, and onboard touch interface
-  * **Manupulation and grasping**, that is, the problem of robots being capable of grasping and manipulating real world objects in human; here we are interested on topics ranging from finger design, up to motion planning
