FORobotics
mobile, ad-hoc cooperating roboter teams

The association
The association "FORobotics - mobile, ad-hoc cooperating roboter teams" wants to unite the skills of different roboters in roboter teams to increase productivity. For reaching this goal, the association works on innovative, technical solutions and methods to integrate cooperating roboter teams, consisting of different roboter systems and humans, into the production process.
FORobotics is divided into 6 projects, which play together as it is visualized in the following document.
