* **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; | * **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.

* **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; | * **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; | ||
