Autonomous systems are a type of artificial intelligence technology that are designed to operate and make decisions without human intervention. These systems use algorithms and sensors to gather and process information from their environment, allowing them to navigate and perform tasks independently. Autonomous systems are used in a variety of fields, including robotics, transportation, and manufacturing, to improve efficiency, safety, and productivity. This research area focuses on developing and advancing the capabilities of autonomous systems to increase their reliability and autonomy in various real-world applications.
