Open Positions
We are seeking for highly motivated, resilient and talented MSc/PhD students and post-doctoral researchers to join our multidisciplinary research projects, which are correlated with design, control, implementation, and evaluation of biomechatronic systems to enhance human abilities, measure human performance, give human users the best possible means to carry out their intentions. In particular, we analyze and derive principles to design physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) of a system and its control, and build devices for use by human bodies. Our success criterion is to achieve natural and safe pHRI considering the constraints due to the anthropometry, control architecture behind the neuromuscular system of human and biomechanics.
