Following the great success of Summer Schools in Prague, 2019, 2020, 2022 & 2023, the MRS RAS technical committee is organising 2024 IEEE RAS Summer School on Multi-Robot Systems mrs.felk.cvut.cz/summer-school-2024/ which will be held again at the campus of Czech Technical University located at the heart of the historic city of Prague, in July 29 - August 2, 2024.
The Summer School aims to promote the newest achievements in multi-robot systems and swarm robotics to students, academic researchers, and industrial practitioners to enable putting systems of cooperating robots into practice. The content of the Summer School will be focused but not limited to systems of cooperating aerial vehicles (UAVs) and ground robots (UGVs). The topics addressed by well-recognised experts in the field of Multi-Robot Systems are composed to provide the participants necessary knowledge for understanding the available theory and for realisation of real-world experiments with a fleet of autonomous micro aerial vehicles on the last day of the Summer School. This year the school will be focused on deployment of MRS in real-world conditions being motivated by cooperative inspection in challenging outdoor scenarios with high density of obstacles.
The school is primarily considered for in person participation since the networking of students is an important part of the event. The last editions have attended more than 600 students from the best robotic groups worldwide who are still actively cooperating. Nevertheless, we will also allow virtual participation for students from countries with travel restrictions or limitations.
