Robot Jack Navigates Like a Human – A Project Led by Angela Schoellig

TUM News Article

A research team at TUM, led by our PI Angela Schoellig, has developed the mobile robot Jack, which moves safely and efficiently through crowds.

This is made possible by an innovative motion planning algorithm inspired by human behavior. Jack continuously scans its surroundings using a lidar system and updates its trajectory ten times per second, enabling smooth, collision-free movement—even in dynamic environments.

The technology offers promising applications in service robotics and autonomous vehicles, where natural and safe interaction with people is essential.
