Research Interests
In Marine Systems and Robotics, Prof. Francesco Maurelli’s group applies robotics, automation, artificial intelligence and algorithmic approaches to autonomous robots operating in the marine domain — whether underwater, on the surface, or above the water. Such research can be applied to, for example, ocean exploration, subsea installation management, maritime traffic automatisation, and improving the safety and efficiency of operations at sea. While many techniques in this field are tailored to the marine domain, its robust intelligent systems can be applied to other areas. The group is involved in research projects spanning a variety of domains — from underwater to space — using a diversity of research methodologies, from theoretical scientific research to industrial applications to operations in the field.
