The AVS Lab is presenting numerous contributions at this year’s IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2026, one of the world’s leading conferences in the field of robotics and automation.

With 1 keynote, 4 papers, 2 workshops, and 1 competition, our team is presenting the latest research findings on autonomous systems and robotic applications. Participating in ICRA offers an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with international researchers, initiate new collaborations, and enhance the visibility of our research on a global scale. Together with the Munich Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (TUM MIRMI) and the Robotics Institute Germany, we look forward to seeing you at ICRA.
