Joining the Group
PRIME Robotics Lab
The PRIME (Perceptive Reasoning and Intelligent MachinEry) Robotics Lab at UBC conducts cutting-edge robotics research at the intersection of robotics, perception, and artificial intelligence. Our vision is to develop innovative robotic systems that can interact with and adapt to their environment in a seamless and intelligent manner. We aim to push the boundaries of what is possible in robotics, enabling robots to operate effectively in complex and dynamic environments.
Research Goal:
Our research goal is to design, develop, and deploy advanced robotic systems that can perceive, reason, and act intelligently in real-world settings. Our focus areas include:
- Hybrid soft-rigid robotics
- Swarm and modular robotics
- Dexterous manipulation and grasping
- Multimodal perception and reasoning
- Motion planning in high-dimensional space
