The Centre for Autonomous Systems (CAS) at University of Technology Sydney (UTS) in Australia consists of 50 staff and students with a fundamental research focus on two key problems in robotics: “Robots in unknown and complex environments” and “Human robot interaction”. From 2003 - 2010, it was one of the three nodes of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous System (ARC CAS). With over 230 staff and research students, ARC CAS became the second largest robotics research group in the world with an international reputation for both leading fundamental research and its application to industry. UTS: CAS has a track record of delivering industry outcomes including grit blasting robots and smart hoists. It has attracted 15 million Australian dollars' research funding since 2003. In this talk, I will introduce the different research projects conducted at UTS: CAS including the various practical projects and fundamental theoretical research on mobile robots simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM).
