You are kindly welcomed to the UPM Autonomous Systems Laboratory website.
This site contains information about our research group: projects, activities, people, publications, courses, etc. The focus of our research are
Autonomous Systems, i.e. systems that operate by themselves without the need of external intervention. This is useful in many real-life situations for economical, technical or safety reasons.

Una metodología de ingeniería de sistemas intensivos en software
José Luis Fernández
Place: Aula Artigas
Time: May 18, 2012 / 12:30-13:30
La presentación propone una metodología de ingeniería de sistemas intensivos en software, denominada ISE&PPOOA, que se basa en el uso de modelos combinándola con otras prácticas de ingeniería que serían útiles en el diseño de sistemas mecatrónicos. Esta metodología que se propone contempla la especificación de requisitos, el análisis funcional y el diseño de alto nivel. Esto podría ser de suma utilidad en la ingeniería de otros productos, equipos y aparatos a la que se puede enfrentar un ingeniero involucrado en su desarrollo.

The book From Brains to Systems (Hernández, Sanz, Gómez et al.) is available in bookshops.
| An excerpt from the introduction:
"Science moves in little steps, but also makes its progress with revolutionary discov- eries and concepts that sweep away whole and entire edifices of thinking and replace them with new theories that explain more with less. However, there is a constant in this march, the strive for mathematisation and unification.
The extent to which reverse-engineering of brains will help with technological advance in the engineering of more robust autonomous systems is yet to be clear. Nevertheless, the different approaches offered in this book show a steady progress toward more rigorous methods of analysis and synthesis. This rigour implies that they may eventually converge into a single, unified theory of cognition: the very holy grail of cognitive science and engineering."

Adaptation Mechanisms Based on Perception
Meet requirements even in design-time unexpected circumstances
Juan Escasany
Place: Aula Arigas
Time: March 23, 2012 / 12:30-13:30
En la ciencia cognitiva actual se observa una tendencia creciente a considerar el estudio de la percepción y la acción y su planificación como inseparables.
Este no ha sido el punto de vista imperante en los últimos años. En el seminario se va a presentar un enfoque unificador de este estudio bajo la teoría de
que la percepción y la planificación de la acción comparten un mismo medio representacional. Lo que tiene importantísimas consecuencias en el estudio de la adaptación, así como en el diseño de sistemas autónomos. Se hará hincapié en las aplicaciones al conocimiento del espacio en el que se desenvuelve un sistema autónomo móvil y a su propiocepción.

An ASLab Research Seminar
The Morphofunctional Approach to Emotion
Engineering Morphofunctional Adaptation
Carlos Herrera
Place: Aula de Seminarios DISAM
Time: February 17, 2012 / 12:30-13:30
This seminar will present an approach to modeling emotions from a morphofunctional perspective. We will discuss the importance of morphology in robotics and describe some lines of research in this area. The idea of morphofunctionality will be introduced to describe robots that can change the functionality of its morphology in real-time for a better adaptation. We will connect this idea with the physiological changes in biological agents and with emotions. We will present an outline of a potential control system based on these principles and see how emotion can be modeled from this perspective, allowing us to clarify emotional phenomena that most models in robotics have simply neglected.
