Automaticathe International Trade Fair for Automation
Andreas Herrmann giving the EURON presentation. EURON hired a booth and made a presentation at the AUTOMATICA trade fair in Munich in May 2006. AUTOMATICA is the first and only international trade fair that brings together all areas of robotics and automation under one roof: Assembly, Robotics, and Vision. 814 exhibitors from 37 countries presented a wide range of innovative products and solutions, and over 28,500 trade visitors from 84 countries attended. Many thanks to Rosario Marino for manning the EURON booth and to Andreas Herrmann for giving the presentation. 
A press release and accompanying photo material can be downloaded from the AUTOMATICA website's "Press" section. The next AUTOMATICA takes place from 10 to 13 June 2008 at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre. |
Recent Items... that relate directly to EURONCONGRATULATIONS to Herman and John and the new EURON Board following their success in our big vote. Thanks to all who voted. EU funding of the current EURON network ends at the end of April 2008. Note that EURON stopped accepting new members on Jan 20th. The server migration on 19th Dec went well, we hope that people were not too inconvenienced. EURON's funding runs out on 30th April 2008. The network will continue, but the exact form of what can be achieved is still being discussed. 
Congratulations to Martin Hägele of Fraunhofer IPA (Stuttgart)! He was awarded the Joseph F. Engelberger Robotics Award in a ceremony in Chicago on June 13th. The Engelberger Robotics Award is a prestigious robotics honour and recognizes outstanding individuals who have contributed to the advancement of the science of robotics and in the service of mankind. The picture shows Martin and Donald Vincent, Executive Vice President of the Robotic Industries Association. The call for Prospective Research Projects PRPs is closing now due to EURON itself having only a few months left. Special Interest Groups SIGs can still be submitted for a little longer.
