Exciting! This workshop will explore alternative designs for social robots using Metaphors. Our goal is to cultivate new perspectives for robots, beyond the existing norms. Co-organized with maria luce lupetti Michal Luria @[email protected] and Diana Löffler. Submit here: robotmetaphors.com

An exciting opportunity! Please contact myself or Animesh Garg for more information and to apply!

We won!! We placed first in the 3rd-year AutoDrive Self-Driving Challenge aaaand... are the Overall Winner of this 3-year competition! Congrats to our amazing team of students! So proud! youtube.com/watch?v=RcSKW4…

Fall has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere! Why not curl up with a nice warm cup of ☕️ and prepare a paper for our special issue of Autonomous Robots on Power-On-and-Go Robots! Initial deadline is Nov. 15 - full details available at: springer.com/journal/10514/…

Conference Registration Link is now live. robot-learning.org/attending/regi… - General, $50 USD - Students, $20 USD - Discounted tickets available through the Inclusion@CoRL initiative. Very much looking forward to seeing many of you between Nov 16 - 18, 2020

Should debates be formally integrated into future robotics conferences? We think so, and we've written a short piece for to explain why! With Brian Wang, @sarahtangy, Jaime Fernández Fisac, Felix von Drigalski, @leeclemnet, Matthew Giamou, Sylvia Herbert, Valentin Peretroukhin, Florian Shkurti.

ICRA Debates are going to be spicy 🔥 with Stuart Russell, Elizabeth Croft, Matthew Johnson-Roberson, David Hsu, Katherine Kuchenbecker, Vasu Raman, Gillian Hadfield, @mdocholliday, Kristi Morgansen, Ryan Gariepy, Pete Trautman, Ram Vasudevan, Dmitry Berenson, Camillo Jose Taylor,greg dudek
