Eurobot Conference 2011


4^th International Conference on Research and Education in Robotics


June 15-17 2011, Prague, Czech Republic



Call for Papers

In the past years, with the advances in microelectronics and digital technology, robots became a platform for innovation. This gave thrust to the development of new and fast robot systems. To further encourage the research and cooperation in this area, this conference aims to gather researchers and developers from academic fields and industries worldwide to explore the state-of-the-art and at the same time to meet with young robot builders who compete in the Eurobot Autonomous Robot Contest.
The program committee invites you to attend the EUROBOT Conference 2011 and submit papers on all aspects of robotic systems including, but not
limited to:
Areas of interests / conference tracks:

* Research Track

Robot control and behaviour: localization, navigation, planning, simulation, vizualization, virtual reality modelling, evolutionary and cognitive robotics.
Applications of autonomous intelligent robots: exploration robots, service robots, robots for hazardous environments.
