Overview
Bristol Robotics Laboratory is a collaborative partnership between the University of the West of England (UWE, Bristol) and the University of Bristol, and is the largest academic centre for multi-disciplinary robotics research in the UK. The Robotics Innovation Facility is housed in BRL’s state-of-the-art laboratory, which covers an area of over 3,000 square metres, and is located on UWE’s Frenchay Campus to the north of the city of Bristol. The RIF is equipped with a number of robots, vision systems and other items of automation. BRL also houses laboratories and spaces for work in areas of assisted living, machine vision, human robot interaction, sensor development and sensor applications in surgery, swarm robotics, microbial fuel cells etc. One of the largest European indoor arenas for flying Miniature UAVs is located within BRL. A well-equipped workshop with additive layer manufacturing machines, machine tools and electronic benches etc. provides support for many of the research projects. Three dedicated personnel service the RIF and support its offerings with additional assistance provided by the BRL technical support team and other engineers and scientists employed in the laboratory, and the university at large, as and when required. Bristol Robotics Laboratory is also responsible for the coordination of activities of RIFs in SSSA, Pisa, CEA, Paris and BRL, Bristol. Digital technologies.
