Robotics Summit & Expo Launches Academic Outreach Program
Program to accelerate the development of commercial robotics systems by providing complimentary and discounted registration packages for universities and research institutions to attend international robotics engineering event.
-Business-to-Business publisher WTWH Media today announced the launch of the Robotics Summit & Expo Academic Outreach Program. Under the program, complimentary and discounted registrations are made available for academic groups to attend the Robotics Summit and Expo, the international engineering event for producers of commercial class robotics systems. The Robotics Summit takes place June 5-6, 2019 at the Seaport World Trade Center, Boston, MA.
Dan Kara, VP of Robotics at WTWH Media, notes, "The Robotics Summit and Expo brings together in one place, at one time, technical and business professionals from across the globe to share knowledge, experience and insights with the goal of driving robotics development and innovation forward. As such, the event provides students, academicians and researchers - those building the next generation of commercial robotics systems - with a great opportunity to learn from the leading companies and entrepreneurs sharing their robotics development experiences and expertise. The Robotics Summit & Expo is also a great way for students and researchers to meet with companies seeking top robotics and engineering talent."
Under the Robotics Summit Academic Outreach Program, students, researchers and educators can participate in the Robotics Summit & Expo in three different ways:
Two Complimentary Full Conference Passes - Colleges, universities and research institutions are provided with two complimentary full conference passes to the Robotics Summit & Expo.
Discounts on Full Conference Passes - Once the two complimentary full conference passes are utilized, researchers and educators can register for a full conference pass to Robotics Summit & Expo at the academic rate of $295 (versus a full price of $595).
Robotics Engineering Career Fair - A Robotics Engineering Career Fair, sponsored by MassRobotics and co-located with the Robot Summit & Expo, takes place on June 6, 2019 from 4:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. To register for the career fair, please visit roboticssummit.com/massrobotics-career-fair/.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
