We are an interdisciplinary initiative at Queen’s University focused on combining Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Human Machine Interaction to create future intelligent systems and robotic machines that enhance human productivity, safety, performance, and quality of life.
Walking just might get easier thanks to researchers at Queen’s University. They’ve designed an exoskeleton prototype that’s meant to help people walk farther, while using less energy. This device is a subject of a new study in the world-leading academic journal, “Science.” Click to read Article Dr. Michael Shepertycky and Dr. Qingguo Li, two minds …
A technological environment is a built environment. Dr. Josh Woods is rethinking how we can sense and measure how buildings “feel” – and reinvent how we relate to the structures we live and work in. He’s a faculty member in our Civil Engineering department; using AI and new ways of measuring materials, his work will …
Better language algorithms mean better AI and better machines. Dr. Xiaodan Zhu is at the forefront of this movement. As announced in January 2021, the Mitchell Professors are five engineering researchers, funded by a gift from Bruce Mitchell, Sc’68, DSc’20, to explore the frontiers of how humanity and machines coexist. The Mitchell Professors reside in …
Integrating nature and robotics, from slithering to swarms. Dr. Matt Robertson is the Mitchell Professor reinventing robots via the natural world. As announced in January 2021, the Mitchell Professors are five engineering researchers, funded by a gift from Bruce Mitchell, Sc’68, DSc’20, to explore the frontiers of how humanity and machines coexist. The Mitchell Professors …
Queen’s Engineering is reinventing our understanding of machines; from how they think, to how they move, to how they – and we – feel.

By Heshan Fernando, PhD Candidate, Offroad Robotics at Ingenuity Labs Brief description of research: The aim of this research is to develop a novel methodology for classifying excavation materials using only proprioceptive sensor data (e.g., forces, motions, vibrations, etc.) that are acquired from robotic excavators during digging and loading. In this preliminary work, we present …
