The group develops and validate knowledge based and CAD based methodologies to project the best solutions for robotics in diverse sectors of manufacturing and assembly.

Particular attention is dedicated to integrating the different phases of the design of products and processes and to simulating and optimizing human – robots interactions.

With our research activity, we aim to develop innovative solutions to measuring, testing and controlling in experimental settings.
