The idea is simple: one week with various robotics related activities across Europe
targeting the general public to highlight the growing importance of robotics. The aim
is to have several events dedicated to robotics throughout Europe within this week for
the benefit of the general public and school kids of all ages, such as open houses,
lab tours, exhibitions, workshops / public talks / discussions, targeted educational
reach-out-activities (at schools, kindergardens, ….), challenges / competitions, or
whatever the robotics institutions across Europe can come up with and are willing to
organise.

MOTIVATION AND OBJECTIVES
The growing need to automate daily tasks combined with new robot technologies
are driving the development of human-friendly robots, i.e., safe and dependable
machines, operating in the close vicinity to humans or directly interacting
with persons in a wide range of domains. The technology shift from classical
industrial robots, which are safely kept away from humans in cages, to robots,
which will be used in close collaboration with humans, requires major
technological challenges that need to be overcome.
The objective of the workshop is to bring together and share knowledge between
researchers on Human-Friendly Robotics from design and control towards safety
and ethical issues involving the introduction of robots into everyday life.
LIST OF TOPICS
(safety measurements, performance metrics, impedance estimation, etc.)
rehabilitation devices, prostheses and orthoses, telerobotics, etc.) and
cognitive interaction (robot assisted therapy, personal and entertainment
robots, robot learning, etc.)

松下公司的Evolta机器人将于10月23日参加夏威夷举行的铁人三项比赛。机器人将在230公里的路程上完成自行车、游泳和跑步三个项目比赛，只使用三节充电电池（充电时间计入总时间）。松下工程师的为机器人专门设计辅助设备（如图）完成自行车、游泳和跑步的任务，由于Evolta的身高只有成人的十分之一，因此计划用一周时间完成整个路程。
