IEEE-ROMA2016 Conference and IEEE-RAS 5th International Robot PRIDE Competition (PRIDE2016).

Assalamualaikum

Hi!

In my previous post I've blogged about the 2016 National Robotics Competition (NRC) in UTP. Now, NRC was part of the Robot Fiesta Malaysia 2016. Other than the NRC, there were 2 separate robotic events which was also held in UTP: the IEEE PRIDE 2016 (on 25th Sept 2016) and IEEE ROMA International Symposium 2016 (on 25-26th Sept 2016).

The Center of Excellence for Humanoid Robots and Bio-Sensing (HuRoBs) and IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Malaysia Chapter are the proud organizers of the 2016 IEEE-RAS 5th International Robot PRIDE Competition (PRIDE2016). This yearly event was held in UTP (for Malaysia Round) and next in Tokyo Japan (for Japan Round) from 17th to 18th December 2016. The objective of PRIDE is to explore and exhibit innovative ideas and designs within the scope of Robotics, Sensors, Automation, Computation and Intelligent Systems. This year PRIDE2016 Malaysia Round is organized in conjunction with 2016 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (IEEE-ROMA2016). Meanwhile, PRIDE2016 Japan Round is organized in conjunction with 2016 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Intelligent Sensors (IEEE-IRIS2016) www.ieee-iris2016.com. 

For the symposium, all accepted papers in IEEE ROMA 2016 will be published in the conference proceedings and will be submitted for publication in IEEE Xplore database (indexed in Scopus).
