The Leonardo Robotics Labs at Maker Faire 2020

From December 11th to 13th, 2020, the Leonardo Robotics Labs will participate in the digital edition of Maker Faire 2020.

The Leonardo Robotics Labs were born in 2019 to bring together the multidisciplinary skills of the Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria (DEIB) in the Robotics research field. The DEIB laboratories, already active since a lot of time and with a long experience and tradition in the Robotics sector, have come together to seize the synergies deriving from diversified experiences and skills and to face the advanced robotics challenges.

AIRLab, active in the fields of artificial intelligence, autonomous robotics, human-robot interaction and machine learning, Merlin, which deals with autonomous and industrial robotics, mOve Lab, which focuses on automotive controls, intelligent vehicles and smart mobility, and Nearlab, which operates in the field of medical robotics, will be available online with virtual stands for all three days of the event.

The responsible of the laboratories will also present their research activities in a live video on the main channel of the event on Saturday December 12th, starting around 4.30pm.

Infact this year MFR renews its format, transforming it from a paid physical event into a free digital event. A digital platform has been created, where the pavillons are themed pathways and the stands are web pages with exhibitors available to interact with the people. As always, there’ll be a rich calendar of live events, talks, webinars, workshops and conferences on the main themes of innovation, as well as on the latest issues that the pandemic has prompted to investigate. A live channel will stream a packed programme of events, interviews, conferences and shows, both general and themed.
