Dear MoveIt! Community,
We invite you to attend the RSS 2014 Workshop: Next-Generation Robotics: Academia, Start-ups and Industry.
Several of the companies in this workshop use MoveIt! and ROS.
The workshop program includes talks from industry and academic leaders
who will present their vision for future robotics applications in the
automotive,
aerospace, manufacturing, surgical and other sectors. The workshop will
also feature talks from key people in the hottest current startups in
Robotics giving RSS workshop attendees, for the first time, the
opportunity to hear first-hand the stories of how
startups are formed and grow. This is a chance for attendees to share
the excitement surrounding Robotics and its applications in industry and
we look forward to seeing you all there. For more information including
