The Automation and Control (AUT) group at DTU Electro is internationally leading in education, research, and innovation within autonomous systems. It offers a broad portfolio of research competences for the design, development, implementation, testing, verification and validation of autonomous robotic systems operating in the air, on the ground, on the water, and underwater. The expertise includes mechatronics, control systems, multimodal perception systems, fault-tolerant systems, and cognitive systems. AUT is among the European leading institutions for the development of technologies for autonomous ship navigation, and it is the driving force pushing the development of the first Danish autonomous ferry. The Observation Technology Group at DTU Aqua specializes in sensor and platform technologies for data acquisition, processing and perception in marine and freshwater environments. The research group consists of marine research scientists and engineers who have competences in acoustic, video, remote sensing, and in situ biogeochemical sensors, instruments and platforms. The group is experienced in the deployment and operation of unmanned robotic technologies for marine science, including unmanned surface and underwater vehicles in a variety of challenging environments such as Arctic Greenland and the North Sea.
