▣ Abstract :

Since

the advent of the monumental play written by KarelCapek in 1920, robots have been generally viewed as artificial machine

platforms to provide various labors and services for human. Nowadays, the rapid

growth and convergence of hardware and software technologies in the area of

robotics makes robots capable of working together with human as a friend or

teacher, agent, rescuer, and the like. In this talk, robots and technologies

closely related with human’s daily life are especially addressed, and,

up-to-date robots for telepresence,surveilance,

home care aide are also introduced. In addition, networked collaboration

projects named RoboEarth,RoboHow,

and RoboBrainare also taken into consideration as a direction of the next generation

development. The presenter will conclude his talk with some interesting stories

about DRC Final which will be held in 2015.
