Socially Intelligent Robot and Smart Cities, Where the Smarter World’s Future Lies

08:30-10:00
Amit Kumar Pandey, Alberto Sanna, Liming Chen /

Organisers
Amit Kumar PANDEY, Aldebaran Robotics, SoftBank Group, Paris, France
Alberto SANNA, eServices for Life and Health, Scientific Institute San Raffaele Smart City, Milano, Italy
Liming CHEN, Computer Science and Informatics, De Montfort University, The Gateway, Leicester, UK

A smart city uses technologies to enhance quality and performance of urban services, and to engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. Robots, being smart and connected machines, have a range of capabilities. There is a great need to investigate about how such robots could be inevitable part of smart city ecosystem, whether it is smart home, public place, hospital, shopping mall, museum or park. This will also facilitate some real use cases of societal applications of the robot and reinforce the message of robotics that it is around the centrality of the citizen.

In this regard, the workshop aims to bring different stakeholders on a single platform to (i) network and create awareness by sharing their experiences at the intersection of Intelligent Robots and Smart Cities, (ii) brainstorm for Commercial, Innovation, Technical and R&D aspects and (iii) contribute to the euRobotics Multi-Annual Roadmap.
