At the MARCH Laboratory, we engage in research aimed at enhancing and expanding human capabilities through intuitive and immersive human-robot interface. Our laboratory is divided into two main groups: the MARCH Robotics Group and the MARCH Bionics Group. Our goal is to fuse cutting-edge technologies in pursuit of the MARCH Surrogate project, which aims to predict human intentions for robot movement and restore the sensory experiences of robots to humans in an intuitive manner.
The March Robotics Group focuses on solving high-level challenges in robotics, including manipulation, task planning, mechanism design, control, and artificial intelligence, to develop autonomous robots capable of operating in extreme environments where ensuring human safety is a complex task. On the other hand, the Bionics Group concentrates on developing innovative technologies such as sEMG-based unsupervised motion intention prediction, biosignal-based gesture recognition, robotic prosthetics for amputees, as well as analysis and restoration of neural signals and sensations using invasive neural interface technology, especially designed for amputees.
Our aim is to advance the field of human-robot interaction and contribute to the creation of state-of-the-art technologies that can bridge the gap between humans and robots. Welcome to the MARCH Laboratory!
