In the forthcoming decade, technologies of eXtended Reality (XR), i.e.,
Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality, and collaborative robots will become
ubiquitous. Then, the XR combination with robots and human-centric Artificial
Intelligence will enable distributed environments where humans, robots and
virtual entities coexist and may become the sentient embodiment of remote human
operators. The AIRONE School will cover specific research topics underpinning
this paradigm shift affecting technology, perception and interaction ways.
At the end of the AIRONE School, participants
will learn the main aspects of eXtended Reality, the basics for the design and control
of collaborative and wearable robots for immersive telepresence, and the
fundamentals of Machine Learning and AI applied to Robotics and artificial
vision systems.
