Robotics has the potential to be a transformative force in society, revolutionizing how we live, work, and solve complex problems. Unfortunately too often, the focus in robotics is on impressive demonstrations that are difficult to translate into real-world applications, where considerations like safety are crucial. The ROAHM (Robotics and Optimization for the Analysis of Human Motion) Lab is focused on developing tools to safely and robustly deploy robotic systems in the real-world. Our work seeks to develop practical solutions to these problems while providing mathematical guarantees regarding performance. We illustrate the utility of our work on a variety of robotic systems (some of which are depicted in the image above).
