Robotica Special Issue on Computational Robot Design and Customization

Following up on our ICRA 2019 workshop, we are excited to announce a Robotica special issue on computational robot design and customization! The goal of the special issue will be to address questions such as:

  1. How can computational approaches enhance workflow and facilitate the design and rapid prototyping of robots?
  2. How can new materials and manufacturing approaches lead to uniform processes for fabricating robots on-demand?

Paper submission: December 15, 2019
Target publication: June 2020

ICRA 2019 Workshop on Robot Design and Customization: Opportunities at the Intersection of Computation and Digital Fabrication

We’re excited to announce a workshop on Robot Design and Customization: Opportunities at the Intersection of Computation and Digital Fabrication at ICRA 2019. The workshop will bring together the robotics, rapid fabrication, and computational design communities to discuss the challenges and opportunities in custom robot design, focusing on two major questions:

  1. How can computational approaches enhance workflow and facilitate the design and rapid prototyping of robots?
  2. How can new materials and manufacturing approaches lead to uniform processes for fabricating robots on-demand?

We are looking for interested participants to submit 2-page abstracts for short presentations or posters. Check out this website for more details.

We look forward to seeing you in Montreal!
