Cutting-edge computer vision and deep learning solutions are unleashing the potential of robot vision and object manipulation. Within our robotics laboratory, we work on intelligent robot perception and artifact manipulation, facilitating automated high-quality 3D scanning. Collaborating with numerous museums in Italy, we deliver research and prototype robotic advancements. Our robotic laboratory research teams are not just developing solutions but completely redefining robotic applications in cultural heritage, which have never been explored.
