Topics of Interest
The organizers are particularly interested in receiving submissions on analysis, simulation, design, and planning of all types of contact tasks that are difficult to simulate accurately or carry out automatically with a real system: assembly, locomotion, grasping, repair, cleaning, and loading. We also encourage submissions on general methods that use simulation models such as particle filtering and model predictive control. Application areas outside the mainstream of robotics are desired as they will broaden the range of discussions. Generally, submissions should focus on the state of the art in your research area and the shortcomings of current simulation tools in meeting your research goals.
Important Dates
