AIROLAB is part of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Notre Dame. The lab specializes in the software aspects of agent design and implemented of agent architectures are on various robots. http://www.nd.edu/~airolab/
The lab's charter is to discover and develop fundamental scientific principles and practices that are applicable to intelligent mobile robot systems. http://www.cc.gatech.edu/ai/robot-lab/
A research project at Carnegie Mellon University. It aims to commercialize robotics technologies in education, toys and entertainment. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~illah/EDUTOY/
Research into the fundamental mechanics of manipulation, the modelling of physical processes, and the minimum sensor information needed to accomplish a given manipulation task. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~mlab/
Specializes in the dynamics of controlled system, mechatronics, robotics, and nanotechnology. IfR is part of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zürich, Switzerland http://www.ifr.mavt.ethz.ch/
Based at the University of Cambridge Department of Engineering in the United Kingdom. Research topics include interpretation of visual motion, robot guidance, face detection, speech recognition and speech synthesis. http://svr-www.eng.cam.ac.uk/
University of Amsterdam group that studies methodologies to create intelligent autonomous systems, which perceive their environment through sensors and use that information to generate intelligent, goal-directed behaviour. http://www.science.uva.nl/research/ias/
University of Sydney group concerned with the application of advanced control, sensing and systems engineering principles to the development of autonomous machines operating in outdoor, variable and hostile environments. http://www.acfr.usyd.edu.au/
Research topics include computer vision, distributed manipulation, and micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS). Based at the Computer Science department of Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, United States. http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Info/Projects/csrvl/csrvl.html
