QT has been originally developed to provide therapy for autistic children. But is today used for AI Research and teaching. QTRobot is designed to be used by everyone since it offers Code-Less Programming … Continued

Scope and Aims

The AI Robolab is an AI lab created in 2009 at the university of Luxembourg. Following the big 5 terminology explaining the scope of AI, the AI Robolab scope covers Natural interaction (Point 4) and Societal Impact (Point 5). The former is about AI that “strives to create agents that interact naturally with humans” whereas the latter aims to study how AI can “impact society in both positive and negative ways.”
Based on this view, the AI Robolab objectives are threefold:
  1. Research : The AI RoboLab in general provides a key contribution to shaping a digital, healthy and sustainable future.
    1. Digital Transformation: the pillar on AI ethics addresses ethical, cultural and legal questions around digitalisation, in collaboration with a newly created Center for Digital Ethics. Moreover, it collaborates with C2DH on digital humanities, and it has an interest in space AI.
    2. Medicine and Health: the pillar on social robotics contributes to digital health.
  2. Education. The AI RoboLab contributes to a personalised, innovative and high-quality teaching and learning across the University
    1. Teaching and Learning across the university. The AI RoboLab embeds project-based learning as its preferred mode of teaching, enabling personalized training. The C21 is one of the main lab’s projects in this direction.
    2. fostering a dynamic, diverse and international student community: the AI RoboLab hosts yearly many student internships from all over the world (for a list of the ongoing projects, please refer to this page).
  3. Impact: The AI RoboLab contributes to the social, cultural and economic development of Luxembourg and the world.
    • Together with its spin-off company LuxAI, it provide support and guidance to researchers, staff and students in the transfer of ideas and discoveries into the socio-economic sphere through the creation of spin-offs.
    • The AI RoboLab promote entrepreneurial thinking and creativity as transversal skills to students and young researchers.
    • With its pillar on computational creativity, and the AI&Art pavilion at Esch2022, it is deepening dialogue and engagement with interests groups and the general public.
The AI Robolab seeks to provide help to all DCS members interested in using the robots for research or teaching purposes. The AI Robolab is looks forward for collaborations.

Ongoing AI Robolab Projects

Pillars

The AI Robolab interest falls into three main pillars
With the widespread use of AI applications, AI Ethics emerged as research domain aiming to investigate fairness, accountability, and transparency of the more and more sophisticated AI systems.This move is supported several recent initiatives originating from national, international as well as industry stakeholdersare being developed to investigate the ethical dimension of these AI solutions
Social Robotics aims to improve the robots’ social capabilities and enable robots to work alongside with humans by providing emotional, cognitive and social cues to encourage the user(s) development and achieving a given goals. Social robots tackle the challenges of motivating the end-users, coaching, entertaining and rehabilitating by focusing on non-physical interaction.Our contributions in the domain of social robots are carried out in research, teaching, and outreach activities

This pillar started at the AI Robolab, when a workshop on AI and Art was organized by the AI Robolab at the university of Luxembourg. Later, in 2020, our project proposal has been accepted by the Esch22. Therefore, the AI Robolab will be responsible for the organization of an AI & Art pavilion that will be included in the activates of Esch 2022 European Capital of Culture.The pavilion involves several corners and projects developed by artists and researchers interested in creative technologies as well as staff from the AI Robolab.The kickoff meeting of this project was organized by the AI Robolab and held on 25th of September 2020.
