Welcome to the UCT ARU GitHub Organisation. This organisation is used to host code and other assets developed by the ARU.

TheAfrican Robotics Unit (ARU) is a research unit within theDepartment of Electrical Engineering of theUniversity of Cape Town. The ARU is a multidisciplinary research unit that focuses on the development of robotics and autonomous systems for application in the African context.

The objective of the ARU is to study robotic problems that we, as Africans, are uniquely positioned to solve.

Our main research areas are:

• Bio-Inspired Robotics
  Biologically inspired robots with advanced motion capture and control systems technologies.
• Autonomous Navigational Systems
  Spacial navigation systems for autonomous vehicles using a variety of sensors and machine learning techniques.
• Marine Robotics
  Scientific systems for research and exploration, focusing on Antarctica and the Southern Ocean in collaboration with theUCT MARiS interdisciplinary research centre.

Please visit theARU Website for more information on the unit - including our members, publications, available positions and contact information - as well as our social media accounts listed above.
