The symposium is a week long summit of robotics talks to commemorate the
life of Prof. Dr. Gerhard K. Kraetzschmar (1961 — 2019). Experts in various
fields of robotics, from around the world, and who have worked with Prof.
Kraetzschmar for decades, will share key insights and their take on the
current state of robotics.

The SciRoc Camp is an online event for sharing information on advances in
robotics benchmarks. The event aims to connect robotics benchmark
