Cyprus University of Technology Robotics, Control, and Decision Systems DIH (RCDS - DIH)

Cyprus: Cyprus

Overview

Who we are

We are the Robotics, Control, and Decision Systems (RCDS) laboratory and digital innovation hub (DIH) at the Cyprus University of Technology. We are a non-profit entity under the Cyprus University of Techology. RCDS is the first robotics laboratory in Cyprus (established in 2011). Since then, we have developed externally funded activities worth more than 26 million euros. We engage in research, technology development, innovation and commercialisation activities.

Our people
The team has decades of combined robotics, technology and product, and business experience in the US and Europe. We have worked with commercial entities of all sizes (start-ups to multinationals) as well as academia, government agencies and NGOs.

The RCDS Laboratory
The RCDS Laboratory is at the heart of the RCDS DIH. It provides the foundation (people, expertise, infrastructure) upon which all the services of the Digital Innovation Hub are built. The laboratory operates out of two facilities (one focusing on marine and maritime robotics and another one dealing with mobile, aerial and underground robotics) at the campus of the Cyprus University of Technology.

Services
Our service offering is wide and varied. Are you a startup or a larger corporate entity? Or maybe a government agency, an academic or research entity, or an NGO.
