The Workshop on Athletic Robots and Dynamic Motor Skills (RoboLetics 2.0) aims to explore the advancement of athletic and agile robots, which are pushing the boundaries of next-generation robotics with their dynamic motor skills, agility, autonomy, and precision. These robots serve as valuable platforms for advancing technology in environments requiring rapid adaptation and high performance.
The workshop will focus on three main areas:
- Designing Athletic Robotic Systems: Developing robots that can exhibit complex athletic behaviors, expanding their capabilities beyond traditional repetitive tasks.
- Real-Time Control and Planning Algorithms: Creating algorithms that allow agile robots to perform complex tasks in real-time while maintaining autonomy and precision.
- Ensuring Safe Human-Robot Collaboration: Addressing safety concerns in environments where robots and humans work side by side, ensuring secure interaction and operation.
The workshop will feature a variety of activities, including invited talks, research presentations, poster sessions, video showcases of athletic robots, and a collaborative brainstorming session. A panel discussion will also focus on the key challenges and future directions in the field of agile and athletic robotics.
