ERF_WebcamRobohub was at the European Robotics Forum in Lubljana, Slovenia last week. We captured pitches from some of the European projects presented at the conference and funded under the last Horizon2020 calls in robotics.

It was quite a lively exhibit hall, so apologies for some of the background noise.
