Welcome to the Institute for Artificial Intelligence!
The Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IAI) is directed by Prof. Michael Beetz.
As a research institute, we conduct basic scientific research in the field of cognition-enabled robotics for everyday activities.
As part of the Faculty of Computer Science, we run strongly project-based teaching. Our hands-on projects in teaching include SuTuRoProjekt: SUTURO - sudo tidy-up-my-room, IntEL4CoRo and the annual EASE Fall School.
The IAI is member of the Center for Computing and Communication Technologies (TZI) at the University of Bremen as well as the high-profile area Mind, Media and Machines (MMM).

Have you ever thought about experiencing cutting-edge scientific research live and even trying it out for yourself? With our VRB webinar we offer you this opportunity! Experience what it's like to work in innovative virtual research laboratories and gain basic knowledge in leading research fields.
The Virtual Research Building (VRB) is an integrated ecosystem designed to promote the development of AI-powered and cognition-enabled robotics. It supports the entire research and innovation pipeline from talent acquisition and training to collaboration in cutting-edge research and knowledge transfer for economic and societal benefit.
With the VRB, we offer convenient, open access to our research infrastructure for cooperative and cognition-based robotics and AI. In our webinar, you will gain insights into how you can benefit from this revolutionary platform equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories. Don't miss this opportunity and discover the potential of our VRB.
Join us and shape the future with us!
A recap of the AI Innovation Made in Bremen event
On April 9th, we had the opportunity to host the โTZI Roadshow: KI Innovation made in Bremenโ event in our facilities. The event kicked off with inspiring welcome speeches from the University of Bremenโs Chancellor, Frauke Meyer, and Bremenโs Senator for Environment, Climate, and Science, Kathrin Moosdorf. Both highlighted the transformative impact of AI, especially its potential to revolutionize the Bremen region.
Robotics Start-Up Ubica Wins Award for Innovative Strategies in Retail
We are celebrating an important award with the robotics start-up Ubica Robotics, which was spun out from the IAI: The ZukunftHandel Award, an initiative of the German Retail Association, honours outstanding examples of forward-thinking strategies in retail. The jury was convinced by Ubicaโs digital twins as an innovative and practice-oriented solution that saves time and money in retail.
Teaching
A detailed description of most courses can be found in the Online Module Handbook of the FB3: http://apophis.informatik.uni-bremen.de:3001/.
