Dr. Robert Haschke serves as a Professor and Responsible Investigator in the Cognitive Systems and Social Interaction Group at Bielefeld University's Faculty of Engineering. He is affiliated with the Center for Cognitive Interaction Technology (CITEC) and serves on the Examination Board for the Intelligent Interactive Systems Master's program. His office is located at CITEC 2-035, and he can be reached at rhaschke@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de or +49 521 106-12122.
Professor Haschke's research spans multiple domains of robotics and artificial intelligence, with particular emphasis on tactile sensing systems, robotic manipulation, and human-robot interaction. His work explores advanced methods for enabling robots to perceive their environment through touch, with applications in assistive robotics and industrial automation. He investigates how machines can learn from human interactions and adapt their behavior through reinforcement learning and sensor fusion techniques. His research bridges theoretical advances with practical implementations, focusing on transferring knowledge from simulation to real-world robotic systems.
Analysis of Professor Haschke's recent publications reveals a strong trajectory toward more sophisticated tactile perception systems and their integration with language and vision for natural human-robot collaboration. His work consistently addresses the simulation-to-reality gap, developing methods for transferring control policies from virtual environments to physical robots. The research shows increasing integration of multimodal sensing (tactile, visual, linguistic) to enable more capable and adaptable robotic manipulation in unstructured environments.
As an educator, Professor Haschke teaches advanced courses including Robot Manipulators (39-Inf-RM), Advanced Artificial Intelligence (39-M-Inf-AI-adv_a), Advanced Artificial Intelligence (focus) (39-M-Inf-AI-adv-foc), and Basics of Artificial Intelligence (39-M-Inf-AI-bas). His teaching reflects his research expertise, providing students with both theoretical foundations and practical skills in robotics and AI.
Professor Haschke is an integral member of Bielefeld University's Cognitive Systems and Social Interaction Group within CITEC. His work contributes significantly to the university's Socio-Technical World research area, particularly in developing capabilities that enable agents (humans, robots, and AI systems) to act, communicate, and learn in complex environments. His research group focuses on creating robotic systems that can interact naturally with humans through advanced perception and adaptive control mechanisms.
