Research project “FORSocialRobots” launched

obotics is developing into a key technology for value creation, improved working conditions and support across all application domains in industry, the service sector, medicine and care, as well as in the private sphere. Wherever humans and autonomous technical systems should and want to cooperate, socially intelligent and adaptable interaction is crucial for pleasant, efficient and accepted collaboration between humans and machines. There is therefore enormous potential in the field of social robotics in particular, which will have a decisive influence on the success of robotic applications in the future.

The Bavarian Research Foundation is therefore funding a large research network FORSocialRobots on the topic of social robotics from 2024. In this project, many of the relevant Bavarian players from industry, application and research will jointly research important issues in social robotics and profitably transfer findings into a wide variety of robotic applications.
