Full Description
This volume presents a collection of papers
presented at the 16th International Symposium of Robotic Research
(ISRR). ISRR is the biennial meeting of the International Foundation of Robotic
Research (IFRR) and its 16th edition took place in Singapore over
the period 16th to 19th December 2013. The ISRR is the longest running series
of robotics research meetings and dates back to the very earliest days of
robotics as a research discipline. This 16th ISRR meeting was held in the 30th
anniversary year of the very first meeting which took place in Bretton Woods
(New Hampshire, USA) in August 1983., and represents thirty years at the
forefront of ideas in robotics research.
As for the previous symposia, ISRR 2013
followed up on the successful concept of a mixture of invited contributions and
open submissions. 16 of the contributions were invited contributions from
outstanding researchers selected by the IFRR officers and the program
committee, and the other contributions were chosen among the open submissions
after peer review. This selection process resulted in a truly excellent
technical program which featured some of the very best of robotic research.
These papers were presented in a single-track interactive format which enables
real conversations between speakers and the audience.
The symposium contributions contained in this
volume report on a variety of new robotics research results covering a broad
spectrum organized into traditional ISRR categories: control; design;
intelligence and learning; manipulation; perception; and planning.
