The first ISR took place back in 1970 in Chicago, USA. ISR is an annual symposium on industrial and service robotics and is a sponsored event of IFR.
ISR represents a meeting point for all scientific, technical and industrial topics related to robotics. The purpose of ISR is to provide opportunities for researchers and engineers worldwide to present their pioneering works and to share ideas in the fields of Robotics. The symposium is organized by a national industry robot association either in America, Europe or Asia in conjunction with an International Robot Exhibition.
The next ISR will be held from 29 to 31 August 2012 at Taipei World Trade Center (TWTC) for the first time in Taiwan. The Gala Dinner and Engelberger Award ceremony is not scheduled yet. The Symposium will be co-located with the exhibition TIROS, a trade fair for industrial and service robots. IFR member TAIROA has the license to run the International Symposium on Robotics.
