Christian Ott is advancing the fundamental principles of robot control to enable safe and natural physical interaction.
Welcome to Technical Committee on Robot Control
Scope
Our scope is to facilitate a vibrant, inclusive discourse that revitalizes the field of modeling and control, empowering emerging researchers to embrace and expand upon these disciplines as they shape the future of robotics research.
Furthermore, we believe that incentivizing Modeling and Control research will enhance the inclusivity of the RAS community. Compared to other branches in robotics, M&C research demands fewer investments, enabling broader participation from groups with limited access to funding for costly equipment and computational resources.
