About
Andgelo Cangelosi is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of cognitive robotics, developmental psychology, and artificial intelligence. His work focuses on how robots can learn and develop cognitive skills through embodied interaction with their environment, mirroring human developmental processes. Cangelosi’s major contributions include advancing evolutionary robotics approaches for autonomous navigation and active vision systems, particularly for space exploration applications. His research on evolved active vision control systems demonstrates how robots can extract relevant environmental information to solve specific tasks, such as obstacle avoidance and navigation for space rovers. With over 3,000 citations across his body of work, Cangelosi has profoundly influenced the fields of cognitive robotics and developmental AI. Notably, his 2009 paper on active vision for navigating unknown environments, though modestly cited, represents a foundational approach to autonomous space research. He has also made significant contributions to understanding symbol grounding in robots and language acquisition through robotic models. As a professor at the University of Manchester, Cangelosi continues to shape the next generation of cognitive robotics researchers, bridging the gap between biological cognition and artificial systems.
