Invasion of the Robots

"The resounding success of the Emerging Robotics Technologies and Applications Conference is an indication that there is a growing new market for personal, service and mobile robotics.  From its academic and research nascency, robotics technology is moving into a number of diverse consumer and business-to-business applications.  As one of the first companies to successfully create and sell large numbers of robots for government, industrial and consumer usages, iRobot views this conference as a seminal event.”

"The Emerging Robotics Technologies & Applications Conference was an incredible event for VIA, not only because of the high quality of the presentations, sponsors and demonstrations but also because of the overwhelming participation by the large community of new innovators and entrepreneurs that attended the event. Where else can you find the great minds of the robotics industry all gathered in one place?"

“The Emerging Robotics Technologies & Applications Conference was a big success for us. We were able to talk about our products and services with a highly focused, business-oriented audience…The time is definitely right for mobile/personal robotics. There was a wide variety of industries represented – from consumer electronics to household goods to the DOD. ERT wasn’t a traditional academic conference with roboticists; it was a gathering of professionals interesting in building the mobile/personal robotics industry.”

Jennifer McNally
Sr. Director of Marketing
Evolution Robotics, Inc.

”I wanted to express my delight with both the number of people attending the Emerging Robotics Technologies & Applications Conference and the high caliber of the inquiries we received. Top level technology officers from leading robotics manufacturers found our motion feedback technology compelling and have requested meetings to discuss upcoming designs. The Robotic Trends conference was nothing short of terrific for us and we are planning to exhibit with you in October.”

William Manning
Marketing Communications Manager
MicroE Systems

"The Emerging Robotics Technologies & Applications Conference provided a steady stream of new information from both the academic side as well as industry, and it created an unbelievable opportunity for networking and as a result, we attracted both large and small businesses that joined our organization during the conference."
