The WASP Research Group is a research team at the University of Málaga (UMA) specializing in social robotics and cognitive architectures. Our main goal is to develop innovative technologies that enable robots to interact more naturally and effectively with humans, integrating advanced cognitive capabilities.
The group has developed several open-source projects that contribute to the field of social robotics and cognitive architectures. Some of our main repositories include:
- scitos2: ROS 2 stack designed for Metralabs robots that utilize the MIRA framework, including models such as SCITOS, TORY, MORPHIA, etc.
- pioneer_ros2: ROS 2 stack designed for MobileRobots Pioneer robots.
- dsr_ros: A ROS 2 stack that contains agents, interfaces and RQT plugins for connecting to CORTEX architecture using a Deep State Representation (DSR) graph.
- dsr_aal: DSR agents for Ambient Assisted Living environments.
- mqtt_dsr_agent: DSR agent that communicates with MQTT brokers.
- wasp_dsr_planner: Behavior Tree (BT) planner with DSR.
- ros_perception_pipeline: Collection of perception-related nodes and tools for ROS2.
- depth_anything_v2_ros2: ROS2 Wrapper for DepthAnything V2 model.
- rasa_ros: A ROS2 wrapper for Rasa NLU, enabling natural language understanding capabilities in robots.
The group actively collaborates with other universities, research centers, and technology companies to advance the field of social robotics and cognitive architectures.
Join us in our mission to build smarter and more social robots!
