Research group at Tallinn University of Technology
Last week we had the pleasure of hosting guest professors Uglješa Marianovich and Slavko Rakic from the University of Novi Sad, Serbia. Their visit brought valuable insights and inspiration to both our staff and students.
On May 8-th we opened the doors of our research group for an Open Lab event, held as part of the ESAK 2 pre-conference day: Human in the Age of Technological Upheavals. Together with Janika Leoste, Jaanus Pöial, Kalle Tammemäe, Katrin Aasma, and Palmi Lahe, we shared our experiences of working with telepresence robots and robotassistants in both educational and healthcare contexts.
Sometimes droids turn to the dark side as well.
It was a pleasure to take part in the FICC Conference 2025 held in Berlin, Germany from March 28-29, 2025. Bringing together researchers, academics, and industry professionals from around the globe, FICC offered a dynamic platform to explore the future of computing, communication, and technology.
We are excited to share that several of our members recently participated in the 16th International Conference on Robotics in Education (RIE 2025), which was held live in Thessaloniki, Greece.
It’s not every day you get invited on TV, so this was a pretty exciting experience for our team leader Janika Leoste and doctoral student Kristel Marmor. They shared insights into our ongoing research and how we’re already putting our robots to use in real-world settings. Big thanks to the show for having us – we’re always thrilled to spread the word about the amazing work happening in our team!
