Introducation: The accelerating demand for intelligent robot systems in industrial automation, autonomous mobility, and intelligent agriculture highlights the urgent need for robust and reliable perception, motion planning, and control. While advances in multi-sensor fusion, AI-driven decision-making, and nonlinear control offer huge potential, critical gaps persist in deploying these systems in practical environments. The topic of this session focuses on, but is not limited to, the following research areas:
1) Perception in Robotics (object detection, semantic segmentation, point cloud processing, simultaneous localization and mapping, multi-sensor fusion, etc);
2) Motion Planning Techniques in Robotics (optimization-based planning, sampling-based methods, learning-based planners, reactive planning, human-aware planning, multi-agent motion planning, swarm intelligence algorithms, etc);
3) Nonlinear Control Methods in Robotics (adaptive dynamic programming, reinforcement learning, neural network, fuzzy logic system, parallel control, sliding mode control, and backstepping control methods, etc);
4) Robot Application (self-driving vehicles, drones, AGV, surgical robotics, micro-nano manipulation, Field robotics, Agricultural automation, space exploration, underwater inspection, social robots, exoskeletons, consumer robotics, service robots, etc).
This session seeks contributions on novel methods that achieve accurate perception, high reliability, low computational burden, low energy consumption, or high safety in surface vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and agricultural robots, etc. The goal is to develop efficient and deployable intelligent robot systems that can operate autonomously in practical scenarios.
