At the Night of Technology, interested visitors of all ages were able to gain some exciting insights into the work of our Autonomous Intelligent Systems group and the diverse fields of robotics application.
"Science hands-on", that's what the numerous visitors could experience in the Robotics Lab of our group Autonomous Intelligent Systems at Night of Technology Bonn/Rhein-Sieg 2023. Both young and old were able to compete with the humanoid RoboCup world champions in soccer, control the XPRIZE-winning avatar robot themselves, interact with a new household robot or inspect the multimodal DRZ flying robot. Even a network of intelligent edge sensors detected our visitors.
However, there was more! The group Humanoid Robots also represented our institute at the Night of Technology. Visitors were able to interact with the Nao robot, play cards against a robot and marvel at current research in the field of Smart Farming of the Cluster of Excellence PhenoRob. Among other things, it was demonstrated how fruit can be recognized and harvested by robots.
In addition to our robotics, other stations from geodesy, astronomy and the Transfer Center enaCom of the University of Bonn invited visitors to participate and puzzle. Prospective students also received information on the corresponding courses of study.
