Highlights
The Autonomous Robotics and Active Vision Research Group is committed to being a leading research group at the University of Sharjah. This group pioneers innovative knowledge and highly sophisticated technological solutions to achieve the aspiration of society by involving students and scientists in the research and development of next-generation active vision algorithms coupled with realistic bio-mimetic kinematics paradigms and articulated physics-based mechanics for the implementation and integration of autonomous robots. The purpose is to interact robots naturally with people and with each other by adapting their behavior to the requirements of the task they are given within the dynamic environment they are situated in.
