The robot revolution is upon us, and where better to witness its vanguard than at the world's leading robotics conferences? The upcoming years promise to be pivotal for the field of robotics, brimming with groundbreaking research, innovative prototypes, and thought-provoking discussions. Take a look at the most important upcoming robotics conferences and events in 2024-25.
Robotics Conference
Upcoming Robotics Conferences and Events in 2024 and 2025: Robotics is an ever-growing field that has been making buzz since Karel Čapek introduced the term in the 1920s. He, however, would have never thought that a simple imaginative term used by him for a play would carve a niche in the human world and be useful a hundred years later.
However, since this technology is still developing, there are many conferences and technical events conducted throughout the year to create awareness for it. Listed below are the most important upcoming robotics conferences and events that will be hosted in 2024 and 2025.
This article will be especially helpful to engineering students studying robotics and emerging scientists in this field.
There are more than 100 conferences and events in robotics that are to be conducted at various levels across the globe. We have shortlisted the most important and well-known conferences that would be beneficial for our readers here.
Joseph Engelberger said, “A robot is a reprogrammable manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or special devices through various programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks.”
On this note, let us take a look at the topmost upcoming conferences in the table below. IEEE RAS has taken notice of the ones listed here.
As many of you are aware, the IEEE RAS is the world’s largest professional society for robotics and automation engineers and scientists. This organization was founded in 1980.
It has over 10,000 members from around the world. The IEEE RAS publishes journals, conference proceedings, and other technical resources; sponsors conferences and workshops; and promotes education and research in robotics and automation.
