Research

Innovating through hands-on experiments and cutting-edge projects.

Four focused research areas, one common method: build, measure, iterate.

01

Autonomous Navigation

Building self-directed robotic systems that perceive, plan, and act in unstructured environments.

02

Robotic Arms

Developing precise robotic arms that mimic human dexterity for industrial and assistive tasks.

03

Swarm Robotics

Creating coordinated robot groups that cooperate to solve complex, distributed problems.

04

Human–Robot Interaction

Designing intuitive interfaces for seamless communication between humans and robots.

Initiatives we host

Beyond the lab: open-source and binational research.

Alongside our in-house research areas, Robot Lab – Greece hosts two initiatives founded and directed by Dr. Minas Liarokapis.

01

OpenBionics

Open-source prosthetic & robotic hands

An open-source initiative designing affordable, lightweight prosthetic and robotic hands, plus soft exoskeleton gloves. Released under permissive licenses so researchers and clinicians worldwide can build on the work.

02

New Dexterity

Binational research on dexterous robotics

A research group operating across NTUA (Athens) and the University of Auckland, developing intelligent, dexterous robots for industrial automation, earth monitoring, and human augmentation.
