Live coverage of #ICRA2019
The IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) is being held this week in Montreal, Canada. It’s one of the top venues for roboticists and attracts over 4000 conference goers.
Andra, Audrow, Lauren, and Lilly are on the ground so expect lots of great podcasts, videos with best-paper nominees, and coverage in the weeks and months ahead.
For a taste of who is presenting, here is the schedule of keynotes.
It also looks like you can navigate the program, read abstracts, and watch spotlight presentations by following these instructions.
