Available Technologies in Robotics
Automation & Logistics
IRIM offers logistics and supply chain solutions via an interdisciplinary team of robotics and AI faculty working on research applicable to every stage of industry automation needs, from simulation to factory floor. Cutting-edge research facility access for biomechanical, swarm programming and AL/ML Data Research.
Manufacturing & Agricultural
Robotics has the potential to revolutionize manufacturing and agricultural inspection and harvesting tasks on factory floors and commodity farms. This is true from the standpoints of labor, economics, supply chain resilience, crop disease detection, and assessment. Specialty manufacturers and farms stand to benefit the most because their operations rely on large amounts of manual labor. By contrast, most aspects of commodity manufacturing and farming have already been automated.
Human Centered Robotics
GT/IRIM's experts in the concept of humanized intelligence are here to help you develop human-centered robotic solutions to human needs with techniques, such as soft computing methodologies, sensing, and learning, can be used to enhance the autonomous capabilities of intelligent systems, whether virtual or physical.
Medical & Assistive
GT/IRIM's biomechanical roboticists are working to design, develop, and evaluate medical robotics systems and smart assistive robotic platforms that enhance the physical capabilities of both patients and clinicians via advancements in mechanical design, modeling and control, sensors and instrumentation, computing, and image processing. Additionally, IRIM has faculty experts in assistive orthotics and prosthetic devices for medical and industrial safety use.
