A major showcase of the latest advances in robotics research will be held at Imperial College London on 25 September, covering everything from improving robot vision, and powering microscopic robots, to helping robots to learn through observing how their owners perform their daily duties.
The Imperial College London Robotics Forum Showcase will consist of a series of presentations from Imperial academics as well as researchers from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland, the Max-Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Germany, and the Robotics Institute of Carnegie Mellon University, USA.
A full list of speakers and their discussion topics can be downloaded here: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/robotics/showcase/
The event is organised by the Imperial College London Robotics Forum, which is one of the largest robotics networks in Europe, consisting of 21 research groups.
The Showcase will be held at Imperial College London’s South Kensington campus from 09.00 to 16.30 on Friday 25 September 2015. Following this, at 17.00, there will be a reception with opportunities for networking, which will include robot demonstrations.
