The Institute of Robotics & Automatic Information System\u00a0(IRAIS) was founded in spring 1998\u00a0within the College of Information Technical Science of Nankai\u00a0University, which\u00a0was established back in 1971\u00a0as one of the earliest in China. In 1985, Nankai initiated robotics research and established the Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Laboratory, one of the pioneer\u00a0robotics laboratories in China. \u00a0Over the years, the Lab\u00a0gradually expanded and transferred into the Institute of Robotics & Automatic Information System. It\u00a0has been awarded with multiple titles, namely\u00a0an open laboratory on robotics in the National High Technology Research and Development Program (863 Program) of China in 1990, Tianjin Key Laboratory of Intelligent Robotics in 2013, National Education Center for Virtual Simulation in 2015, and Tianjin International Cooperation Base in 2016.\u00a0Subsequently On May 11, 2018,\u00a0the research works of\u00a0the institute and the education programmes of the department were united together, and became the base for the new College of Artificial Intelligence of Nankai.<\/p>\n

Through decades of persistent academic pursuit, IRAIS has gained recognition\u00a0in multiple robotics research fields. It now have research directions spanning\u00a0from large-scale aerospace down to micro\/nano technologies, from industry robots to cell manipulation, from missile guidance to surgical navigation, etc. The first robot controller of China was developed in IRAIS , the micro-manipulation robotic system of IRAIS was awarded National Award for Technological Invention, and multiple research works of IRAIS have been successfully commercialized, such as the automated overhead crane system, and the\u00a0large-scale 3D sculpture-painting robot.<\/p>\n

IRAIS currently holds a young and highly qualified team. Steering vision from senior professors and energetic dedication of young faculties have brought synergy and broadened the research horizon. Through collaboration with groups inside and outside Nankai, we apply control methods and techniques to tackle emerging challenges in other engineering and science fields of biology, medicine, physics, mathematics, etc., and have extended our research beyond disciplinary<\/p>\n

IRAIS\u2019s Cutting-Edge Research\uff1a,<\/p>\n

The emphasis on fusion of control science and engineering excites\u00a0ample theoretical and\u00a0experimental research opportunities at the forefront of this field and its interdisciplinary\u00a0applications.<\/p>\n
