Autonomous Navigation and Perception Lab (ANPL)

Technion - Israel Institute of Technology

Welcome!

The Autonomous Navigation and Perception Lab performs research related to single and multi-robot autonomous perception, navigation and planning under uncertainty in the context of mobile robotics. Research in the lab is highly multidisciplinary, involving both fundamental theoretical studies and experimental verification. Please visit Research and Publications pages to see ongoing research activities. The lab was founded by Assoc. Prof. Vadim Indelman in 2014.

We are always looking for highly-motivated individuals to join our group, see details here.
