Robotics and artificial intelligence have an important place in society. To be found in complex equipment in industry and the medical world but also in products that everyone uses every day.
Since 1997, scientists from around the world have come together annually in a symposium to exchange new knowledge and then test it in practice with students from colleges and universities in a competition of robots: the RoboCup 2013 event. This year's robot world championships will be organised by last year's middle-sized league winner in Mexico: TU Eindhoven's Tech United team.
In the midst of this event, we can experience a VIP - tour, a tour of all the phenomena of robotics accompanied by an expert scientist who will let us look behind the scenes and update us on the state of the art and prospects in the field. We hear about the challenging questions to technology, control and required human interfaces and see the ultimate test that the event puts to robotics.
New ideas from theory and practice from an interdisciplinary global field of 2,800 participating scientists will be tested with robots, which will be deployed fully autonomously for this purpose as players in football teams, as dancers in ballets, disaster relief workers or caregivers in the home. The event will feature a real football world competition in which the robot - team that incorporates the best solutions for control, agility, coordination and interaction will win the tournament.
After concluding your VIP - tour, you will be a guest in MathWorks' workshop area where you can watch the various demos of their hardware and software. You can end the visit afterwards with a seat reserved for you in the stands to watch one of the games.
MathWorks has offered seats for KIVINIRIA in the exclusive tours, the VIP - tours done from Wednesday to Sunday.
Please register at all times when you would like and are able to participate. You will then be scheduled on the day where space is available and will be informed in good time.
15 per tour. (please register for all times you can participate)
