For the year 2050 we foresee a game against the 2050 human soccer champion. The workshop shall help to break down the work for the coming 30 years until 2050 into manageable tasks and steps that allow planning and assessing the progress. We will address the subject through three talks and an open discussion. The outcome of the workshop will contribute to the upcoming revision of the RoboCup Humanoid League roadmap. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Schedule:</div><div class=""><div class=""><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">14h30: Welcome</span></font></div></div><div class=""><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">14h45: Minoru Asada: "Consciousness, Ethics, and Fairness emerge from humanoids who feel pain"<br class="">15h15: Steve McGill: T.B.D.<br class="">15h45: Diego Torricelli: „The EUROBENCH robotics framework for bipedal locomotion benchmarking“</span></font></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">16h15: Introduction to Discussion </span></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">16h30: Coffee break</span></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">17h00: Open Humanoid Roadmap Discussion </span></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">18h45: Wrap-up and Farewell</span></font></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class="">19h00: End of Workshop</span></font></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class=""><br class=""></span></font></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">(please redistribute; apologies for cross-postings)</div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><font color="#000000" class=""><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);" class=""><br class=""></span></font></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">For the RoboCup Humanoid League</div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br class=""></div><div class="" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Ludovic Hofer and Reinhard Gerndt</div></div></div></body></html>
