audience looks on at a robotics presentation

The International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) is free to access this year, giving anyone a look into the latest robotics research. Presentations and workshops will be on-demand, starting October 25th, allowing attendees to view the research they desire at any time.

Workshops

From Michigan, there are several faculty participating in workshops, including:
