What is TePRA?
TePRA is a new conference aimed at catalyzing the development of enabling technologies and encouraging their adoption by robot designers.
How does it differ compared to other robotics conferences?
TePRA is positioned mid-way between an academic conference and a trade show. More so than academic conferences, TePRA emphasizes practical applications and industrial participation. More so than trade shows, TePRA has a serious review process, and is targeted at future applications.
Why should I participate?
The practical application of robots to real world problems has been made possible by a number of enabling technologies, from high speed computation (which enabled the first CNC machines) to LIDAR (which enables most of today's autonomous vehicles.
TePRA's goals are:
1. to expose robot designers to new enabling tools, techniques, and technologies
2. to expose tool, technique, and technology developers to the needs of robot designers
TePRA invites you to come and share:
1. new tools, techniques and technologies that may be of use in the robotics field
2. new practical applications of robots that could benefit from a technical/technology breakthrough
CALL FOR PAPERS
You are cordially invited to submit a paper or a proposal for an exhibit or tutorial to the 2008 IEEE International Conference on Technologies for Practical Robot Applications conference to be held November 10 - 12, 2008 in the Greater Boston area.
Participants interested in presenting a paper for either an oral or poster presentation, should submit an abstract of 500 words (maximum) by April 1, 2008. Authors should emphasize either the utility of particular tools, techniques, or technology to enable practical robot applications, or the need of particular practical robot applications for tools, techniques, or technology. Abstract submission instructions can be found below.
Abstract Submission Procedure:
2-page, MS Word with maximum 500 words + author(s) title, name, address, phone, fax, email and organization affiliation must be submitted. In the same file, but on a separate page, principal presenting author biography {max 100 words}. All submissions will be acknowledged via email.
