About the Technical Committee

The Technical Committee for Service Robots of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society was founded during the 1995 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Nagoya, Japan.

The committee was founded to account for a steadily growing international community of researchers and engineers who develop robot systems providing services of various kinds to human users. Above all, the Service Robots Technical Committee understands itself as a forum for exchange of information related to the design and development of service robots.

This committee hopes to bring together researchers and developers from various disciplines such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, artificial intelligence and cognitive science. The Committee wants to serve as a contact point and facilitator to bring industries interested in the field of service robotics together with the research community.
