From Perception to Action: Building Robots That Learn | Canada 🇨🇦
Government of Canada
Canada Connect: Coffee Talk with an Early Career Researcher
My research explores how robots can perceive, learn, and act autonomously in complex real-world environments. I will discuss our work on humanoid and mobile robots, from efficient vision and navigation to emerging vision-language-action models for adaptive behaviour. The discussion will also explore a broader question: How can we move robots from executing predefined tasks towards learning, reasoning, and collaborating naturally with people?
