The website provides some information about LaRA the Lab for Robotics and Automation of HEIG-VD, the West Switzerland University of Applied Sciences at Yverdon-les-Bains*.
The presentation of the laboratory is far from exhaustive here. Teaching aspects are shown with more details on the main website of our School and more particularly in the section of the institute for industrial Automation, iAi.
Currently, the site presents, in priority redirection services, starting with sections about publications, events, images and videos. From a scientific and technical perspective, the redirection to PfC-Y (Piaget for Cognitics) and RobocupAtHome (RAH) websites are the first to be worth mentionning. In addition, the site presents, with a particular focus, our activities about mobile robots - ARY, as well as the related initiatives Eurobot and Robocup.
The publications and given links may give you more indications about the activities of LaRA.
