Space is the main unknown that bounds human understanding and technology progression. Exploring space is difficult, costly and dangerous, hence robotics arise as the most suitable alternative. In particular, planetary exploration vehicles, also called rovers, have become the best option to carry sci…
Over the past two decades Whole-Body Control (WBC) has become the standard method for controlling robots with redundant degrees of freedom, such as humanoids or mobile manipulators. WBC enables the simultaneous execution of multiple tasks by formulating them as constraints or within the cost functio…
An ever-increasing number of in-orbit objects coupled with inadequate post-mission mitigation activities in certain orbital regions is causing a reaction from the space community more then ever. On one hand, a more sustainable usage of orbital environment is being explored while on the other, method…
Scientific monitoring is one of the key elements in the sustainable management of exploited fish populations. Traditional fisheries monitoring predominantly relies on international coordinated scientific large-scale bottom trawl surveys. Survey catches are used to obtain information on the target fi…
While autonomous vehicles are used in industry for underwater exploration and inspection, when it comes to intervention, the state of the art are remotely operated vehicles. To reduce costs, autonomous underwater intervention has been subject of several research projects with a focus on kinematic co…
Robotics research is exciting and frustrating at the same time. Sometimes, it appears easy to mimic but at the same time is very difficult to generalize or reproduce. This talk tries to shed some light into this topic from a mathematical point of view by highlighting some common pitfalls prevalent i…
Human-robot interaction has made great advancements in the last decades, including interactive learning, dialogue-based communication, or collaborative physical interaction. At the same time, the field is still facing hard challenges in coping with individual differences between users, the task- and…

Researchers perform scientific research, write a publication, which is reviewed by peers, and accepted for publication at journals and conferences. Most researchers see this process from their perspective, the authors', while they miss the perspective of the reviewer. Mismatch between author and rev…
