Robotics Track
This track focuses on the latest advancements and challenges in robotics technologies for smart and sustainable cities. It aims to explore how autonomous systems and robotic solutions can enhance urban infrastructure, mobility, public safety, and quality of life. The track welcomes discussions on (but is not limited to): bio-inspired sensing and its integration with foundation AI models to create more intelligent and adaptive robotic systems, innovative methods for moving event detection using LiDAR point streams to improve urban surveillance and traffic management, active perception and mobile manipulation techniques with autonomous UAVs for tasks such as inspection and maintenance of urban infrastructure, and bimanual robotic dressing assistance schemes to provide better care and support for people with disabilities or the elderly in urban environments.
