Workshops

Agile Movements: Animal Behavior, Biomechanics, and Robot Devices
The workshop focuses on agile movements, ranging from natural animal behaviors to robot motions as a result of both mechanism design and control. Agile movements have been reported in many animals and robots, but there still lacks a comprehensive discussion on the essence of agility, especially among researchers from various areas such as roboticists, biomechanics experts, biologists, and physicists. This workshop provides a platform for researchers, especially early career researchers, with different backgrounds to interact, and expects to attract participants who are non-regulars to robotics conferences. The goal of this workshop is to identify the challenges and opportunities of understanding and improving robotic agility from a diverse range of areas, including biology, biomechanics, mechanism design, and control. Such multidisciplinary cooperation will facilitate the robot deployment to the real world with complex unstructured environments and the creation of new directions for the fields, thus reinforcing the originality and diversity of ICRA 2023.
The topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
Agile motion in Animals/Robots | Appendages | Bio-inspired Robots | Biomechanics | Biomimetic & Soft Materials | Mechanical Design & Manufacturing | Natural/Passive Dynamics | Neuroscience | Physical Modelling | Planning, Learning, & Control for Agile Movements | Sensor & Actuators
