 About
ICRA 2004... |
|
The 2004 IEEE
International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) will be
held at the New Orleans Riverside Hilton & Towers in New Orleans,
Louisiana, from April 26 - May 1, 2004.
Robotics and automation technology is being widely used for waste
management, hazardous area activities, industrial applications in
the oil and gas industry, for marine cable route surveys, near shore
nautical charting and military surveys, pipeline inspection and monitoring
of sensitive coastal environments.
We expect technical presentations in such emerging areas and these
expectations are reflected in the theme of the conference, "Environmental
Robotics: Technical Innovations and Cutting Edge Technologies for
Environment Clean up and Ecosystem Management". |
 |
The conference will provide
a unique opportunity for the academic and industrial community to
address new challenges and share solutions, and discuss research directions
for the future in the vicinity of the world-famous New Orleans French
Quarter and the Mississippi river.
Technical topics of the conference include all areas of robotics and
auto-mation. Also, there will be an exhibition site at the conference.
Exhibitors are encouraged to display state-of-the-art products and
services in all areas of robotics and automation. |
