Research themes

Autonomous systems and robotics

We are creating the next generation of robots that can perceive their surroundings, make real-time decisions and learn from experience. Drawing on expertise in mechanical, electrical and software engineering, our researchers build autonomous systems for land, air, sea and space applications.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning

Artificial intelligence and machine learning drives advances in the algorithms and theories that enable smart machines. Our researchers are developing novel machine learning methods and principled AI techniques to enhance the reliability and trustworthiness of intelligent systems.

Intelligent sensing and internet of things

Our research merges sensor technology, connectivity and data analytics to create smart, interconnected systems. We design networks of sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) devices that monitor infrastructure and the environment in real time, converting raw data into actionable intelligence.

Human-centred AI and ethics

Human-AI interaction examines the interplay between intelligent technologies and society, ensuring innovation aligns with human values. We study how AI and robotics influence social systems and human behaviour, exploring the social, ethical, legal and economic implications of these technologies.

Manufacturing and industry 4.0

Manufacturing and industry 4.0 encompasses research on digitally transforming manufacturing processes through automation, data and smart technology. Our researchers develop intelligent production systems that fuse the physical and digital worlds, from robotic assembly lines to AI-driven quality control.

Product design and manufacturing

Product design and manufacturing covers research at the nexus of creative design and engineering for production. This theme looks at how we conceive, develop and fabricate innovative products that meet societal needs and sustainability goals. Our researchers explore design for sustainability, ensuring products have minimal environmental footprint throughout their lifecycle.

Digital health and biomedical AI

Digital health and biomedical AI merges healthcare with information technology and artificial intelligence to create smarter, more connected health systems. Operating at the intersection of AI and medicine, this field is transforming the way healthcare is delivered, speeding up the development of treatments and helping to personalise medicine for individual patients.

Research centres and institutions

Sydney Artificial Intelligence Centre

We’re committed to exploring new horizons in artificial intelligence and endowing machines with the capabilities of perceiving, learning, reasoning and behaviour.
