Has exercising ever felt like a chore? What if you could play with a robot and get the benefits of active physical exercise? Led by Katherine J. Kuchenbecker, the MPI-IS Haptic Intelligence department aims to develop new technologies for generating realistic social-physical interactions with robots. We are investigating motivational exercise interactions beneficial to therapy, and designing new robot behavior based on this knowledge.

Internship in 3D Computer Vision at the MPI for Intelligent Systems in Tübingen
The MPI for Intelligent Systems is in the process of identifying candidates for a new Director. Our institute seeks to understand the principles of perception, action and learning in autonomous systems that successfully interact with complex environments and to use this understanding to design future systems. The institute studies these principles in biological, computational, hybrid, and material systems ranging from nano to macro scales. We take a highly interdisciplinary approach that combines mathematics, computation, material science, and biology.
