Imperial College London Robotics is a leading UK robotics research institution, organized through the Imperial Robotics Forum — a network of 40+ research groups across 11 departments with 100+ post-docs, 200+ PhD students, £150M+ in funding, and 16+ spin-out companies. Key labs include the Dyson Robotics Lab (visual SLAM and Spatial AI, led by Prof. Andrew Davison FREng FRS), the Robot Learning Lab (robot manipulation via vision and ML, led by Dr Edward Johns), the Aerial Robotics Lab (bio-inspired flying robots, led by Prof. Mirko Kovac), the Hamlyn Centre for Robotic Surgery (medical robotics, co-led by Prof. Ferdinando Rodriguez y Baena), and the SWIRL Lab (safe whole-body robot learning, led by Dr Stephen James). Research spans cognitive robotics, medical/surgical robotics, autonomous aerial systems, robot vision, imitation/reinforcement learning, micro-robots, humanoids, and autonomous vehicles. The Forum partners with Amazon, Dyson, and other industry leaders.
