Robotics and Mobile Machines (RMM)

 

Objectives: Robotics is readily becoming ubiquitous with exponential growth and a myriad of applications. This symposium provides a platform for presenting the latest developments in the design, control and applications of robotics and mobile machines. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Novel robot designs, controls and applications
• Humanoid and multi-legged robots
• Cellular and modular reconfigurable, and metamorphic robots
• Field-based robots (marine, underwater, space, aerial, climbing)
• Cloud robotics and robot software architectures
• Rehabilitation and biomedical robotics
• Personal and service robots
• Robust and adaptive control of robotic systems
• Collaborative and cooperative Multi-Robot Systems
• Novel robotic sensor and actuator designs
• Micro and nano robots
• Anthropomorphic, bioinspired and biomimetic robotic systems
• Kinematics and Dynamics of Serial and Parallel Robots
• Industrial and Automation Robots
• Navigation, path planning and localization
• Soft, chemical and mobile robots and applications
• Co-Robotics and Human-Robot Interaction
• Telerobotics

• Grasping, handling and intelligent manipulation

• Robot safety & high-level robot programming
