Welcome to the
ARC Centre of Excellence
for Autonomous Systems.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous Systems was established in January 2003 under the Australian Research Council's Centres of Excellence programme and concluded at the end of 2010.

Autonomous systems represent the next great step in the fusion of machines, computing, sensing, and software to create intelligent systems capable of interacting with the complexities of the real world. Autonomous systems are the physical embodiment of machine intelligence.

The aim of the Centre is to research and explore the nature of intelligence in problems of perception learning and control, and thus to lay the scientific groundwork for the development and application of intelligent autonomous systems.
