Visionen is a state-of-the-art research arena that provides a unique environment for experimental research and education. Visionen is operated by the Department of Electrical Engineering (ISY).

The aim of the research is to improve the accuracy of industrial robots by using Iterative Learning Control in based on estimates of signals obtained by sensor fusion.

The Bionic and Transductor Science unit conductrs research in the interface between biology, material science, transducers and microsystem technology.

We can use sensors attached to the body to capture patterns of motion, and the results can for example be used in the gaming and film industries and in medical rehabilitation. Manon Kok’s doctoral thesis deals with inertial sensors.

Fault diagnosis is about using observations, such as sensor signals, and a mathematical model of a technical system, to detect and diagnose abnormal system behavior.

The ten-year, highly productive collaboration between Linköping University, ABB Corporate Research, ABB Robotics, Saab Aeronautics and Scania is to be continued and extended in the Vinnova-funded competence centre, LINK-SIC.

Gunnar Bark, long-time manager for Ericsson’s research activities in Linköping, is to take over as director of WARA, the Wallenberg Research Arenas, an important part of the WASP research initiative. The role brings challenges.

The topic of the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Jubilee Symposium held at LiU was “Materials and Technology for a Digital Future”. The symposium focussed on technology and materials that mimic humans, but the range of topics was broad.

If robots are to move among people in everyday life, they must be able to make decisions in real time, without human help. WASP doctoral student Olov Andersson describes in his thesis investigations into three different methods of learning.

New study explores how digital solutions affect the relationship between citizens and the public sector, and also what happens in organisations when they introduce various kinds of technology.
