Springer Proceedings in Advanced Robotics European Forum 2024

This book collects the scientific contributions presented at the European Robotics Forum (ERF) 2024 that is the reference event for the EuRobotics association. This book collects the scientific contributions presented at the European Robotics Forum (ERF) 2024 that is the reference event for the EuRobotics association. In the months leading up to the forum, a direct call was launched to the many industrial players who are members of EuRobotics and who were asked to specify particularly important areas of development according to their roadmap. The outcome of this survey and the topics of the Workshops held during the forum have been used to calibrate an industry-driven scientific program where research objectives meet industrial needs. The contributions collected in the book cover a wide spectrum of robotics research, encompassing mechatronics, algorithms, Artificial Intelligence, Human-Robot Collaboration and many robotic applications.
