Robot Talk Episode 159 features Maria Koskinopoulou discussing autonomous robotic manipulators for surgery, industry, and beyond

Maria Koskinopoulou, Assistant Professor in Robotics and Computer Vision at Heriot-Watt University, co-leads the ARM²Lab (Autonomous Robotic Manipulation & Multi-Agent Systems Lab) at Heriot-Watt and the National Robotarium alongside Ignacio Carlucho.

Her research interests span robotic manipulation, perception, robot vision, medical robotics, human-robot interaction, and machine learning, with involvement in major UKRI and EU-funded projects covering surgical and underwater robotics, autonomous assembly, and waste sorting.

The episode is part of Robot Talk, a weekly podcast exploring robotics, artificial intelligence, and autonomous machines.
