ICRA is the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society’s flagship conference and the premier international forum for robotics researchers to present and discuss their work. This year, the conference was held in person in London from May 29, 2023, to June 2, 2023. "Embracing the Future: Making Robots for Humans" was the conference motto.
MRC faculty, researchers, and students participated in the conference with a total of 24 papers.
Postdoctoral Associate Nare Karapetyan, Associate Professor Pratap Tokekar, and UMD Distinguished University Professor Dinesh Manocha organized a workshop on Heterogeneity in Multi-Robot Systems: Theory, Practice, and Applications.
Assistant Professor Michael Otte organized a workshop on Communication Challenges in Multi-Robot Systems: Perception, Coordination, and Learning, along with Tierry Simeon, CNRS Research Director, LAAS (CNRS), University of Toulouse, France.
