IAI investigates leading edge Artificial Intelligence methods for integrated computer systems including:

• robotic agents that perform human-scale everyday manipulation activities (group: Intelligent Autonomous Systems)
• ambient and pervasive computing systems that assist humans at home, at work and during leisure activities (group: Wearable Intelligence)
• large-scale distributed autonomous logistics and production networks (group: Intelligent Systems in Production & Logistics).

IAI coordinates and participates in several EU projects in particular within the context of the FP7 Challenge 2 “Cognitive Systems”

Additional collaborative research projects funded by DFG and other funding agencies include:

• BayCogRob within the DFG Priority Programme “Autonomous Learning”
• LogDynamics (Bremen Research Cluster for Dynamics in Logistics)
• Autonomous Courier and Express Services (funded by the DFG)
