SUMMARY:2nd Unconventional Robots: Rethinking Robotic Systems Beyond Convention
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Room: 312 \nWhen you think about a robot\, what comes to mind? A humanoid\, quadruped\, quadcopter\, or a multi-degree of freedom robot arm? These standard robot morphologies have become widely commercialized and are often our go-to general purpose systems\, benefiting from well-established and accessible tools for working with these robots. However\, when a task falls outside of the operational capabilities of these robots\, this gives us an opportunity to rethink the design of a robot\, making it more unconventional. \nAn unconventional robot design can offer the potential for enhanced capabilities\, improved performance\, and operation in complex and unstructured environments. These designs include exploratory robots for space and Earth sciences\, modular robots for industrial applications and transportation\, and soft robots for medical uses and human interaction. However\, unconventional robots are often underactuated or characterized by high degrees of freedom\, necessitating the development of novel mechanisms\, models\, and control strategies. \nBuilding on our first unconventional robots workshop at ICRA 2024\, this workshop aims to provide a platform to discuss several key questions: \n\nHow can we create systematic approaches for designing\, manufacturing\, and modeling complex robotic systems?\nHow can embodied intelligence be integrated into robot design and control?\nWhat strategies can advance unconventional designs from laboratory settings to real-world applications?\nHow can we bridge the gap between modeling and controlling unconventional robots in simulation and achieving reliable performance in real-world systems?\nHow will specialized systems and standardized robots coexist in the future?\n\nWe aim to bring together researchers and engineers from diverse fields—including mechanism design\, modeling and simulation\, and robotic sensing and control—to share their insights and experiences in developing and advancing unconventional robots.
