BruBotics currently has over 30 international (H2020, FP7, ERC,...), national (FWO) and regional (IWT SBO, iMinds ICON, Flanders Make ICON, Innoviris...) projects running. Below are some of our most exciting ongoing projects. Of course, feel free to contact us for more information on one of our featured projects.

IWT SBO MIRAD: an integrated Methodology to bring Intelligent Robotic Assistive Devices to the user, with a lower-limb exoskeleton as demonstrator.
INTERREG EXSKALLERATE: Boosting SME adoption of exoskeletons in construction and manufacturing industries
EU H2020 SOPHIA: Three BruBotics research groups joining forces to improve our work
The AidWear project aims to develop the artificial intelligence frameworks that are necessary to enable Robotic Assistive Devices (active prosthetics and lower-limb exoskeletons) that give Parkinson’s patients and individuals with an amputation a better quality of life. Building on the results of the AI4exo project and taking advantage of existing hardware, AidWear will advance three areas of interest: intention detection, mid-level optimization, and dynamic simulation.
The project will generate international exposure for Belgian AI and robotics through participation in the 2024 CYBATHLON competition. Furthermore, there are concrete paths to provide a return to society, such as technology transfer to existing Belgian start-ups, reduced healthcare costs for two large patient groups, and dissemination activities to showcase the potential of AI and robotics in healthcare.
This project is made possible by the Federal Public Service for Policy and Support.
BruBotics strives to work closely together with research groups, companies, SME's and public institutions. Are you interested in one of our projects or would you like to learn more about how we can help each other?
