Robotics Research in Austria

  • Conference paper
Robotics in Alpe-Adria Region

Abstract

This paper is divided in industrial applications and research at universities and research institutions. According to the last statistics at the end of 1992 approximately 1750 robots were in use in Austria. In the paper a short overview on the research on robotics is given. There are two main directions: More theoretical oriented research in the field of kinematics, kinetics, path planning and control and research mainly emphasized to applications mainly in small and medium sized companies. In the last time research is done in the direction of application of methods of artificial intelligence in form of expert or knowledge based systems as well as in fuzzy control and neuronal networks related to the field of robotics.
