GRIFFIN at the ICUAS 2020

GRIFFIN results will be presented at the International Conference of Unmanned Aerial Systems (ICUAS 2020) September 1-4. The Conference is hybrid with physical presence and on-line.

2 GRIFFIN papers authored by the GRVC researchers will be presented.  

11:40 – 12:00 Thursday A3.6

POSITRON: Lightweight Active Positioning Compilant Joints Robotics Arm in Power Line Inspection.

14:30 – 14:50 Friday C2.1

Effects of Unsteady Aerodynamics on Gliding Stability of Bio-Inspired UAV.

Moreover, the GRIFFIN Principal Investigator, Prof. Anibal Ollero, will deliver the first keynote with the title “New aerial robotic manipulators for efficient and safe operation”, September 2 at 8.45 am Athens time (7.45 Central European time). In this on-line keynote Prof. Ollero will present recent GRIFFIN  results.

GRIFFIN, the results of AEROARMS to develop Bioinspired Aerial Robotic Manipulators

The latest updated “Results in Brief” of CORDIS (The European Commission’s primary service for EU-funded research result, in six languages) published an article with the title “AI-powered drones for difficult maintenance tasks” in which GRIFFIN was mentioned.

Professor Ollero explains: “Meanwhile, my European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant GRIFFIN is using the results of AEROARMS to develop a new generation of bioinspired aerial robotic manipulators”

Griffin at the ERF

The GRVC had a significant presence in the European Robotics Forum 2020, held at the Trade Fair and Congress Centre of Malaga (FYCMA) from 3rd to March 3rd to 5th. The ERF is the largest event of the robotics and artificial intelligence community in Europe, attended by more than 800 experts and entrepreneurs.

The GRVC showed in its stand at the Congress Centre prototypes of biomorphic aerial robots developed in the GRIFFIN ERC Advanced Grant.

During the ERF Professor Anibal Ollero showed the GRIFFIN birds and the other GRVC robots at the stand to the Andalusian Minister of Economy, Knowledge, Business and University, Rogelio Velasco.
