Humanoid Robotics and Neuroscience

Gordon Cheng is the chair, founder, and director of the Institute for Cognitive Systems at the Technical University of Munich. From 2002–2008, he was the head of the Department of Humanoid Robotics and Computational Neuroscience, ATR Computational Neuroscience Laboratories, Kyoto, Japan. His research interests include humanoid robotics, cognitive systems, neuroengineering, real-time network robot control, brain–machine interfaces, biomimetics of human vision, computational neuroscience of vision, action understanding, human–robot interaction, active vision, mobile robot navigation, and object-oriented software construction.
