  Hosted by the Chinese Institute of Electronics and technically supported by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, the symposium is held annually on-site at the World Robot Conference. At the symposium, Dr. Chen Mingqi and Qiu Silin gave oral presentations titled “Vision-Force ACT: Multimodal Action Chunking for Bimanual Peg-in-Hole Assembly” and “High-Rate Full-Hand Tactile Sensing for Sim-to-Real Recognition and Grasping,” respectively. Their papers were nominated for the Best Conference Paper Finalist Award and the Best Student Paper Finalist Award, respectively. Both papers were supervised by Prof. Li Qiang, marking an important effort by the group in collaborative undergraduate-postgraduate training and in using hands-on research to enhance innovation.

  This trip was an important opportunity for the group to involve students in international academic exchange and to connect with the frontier academic and industrial ecosystem in robotics. The group will continue to deepen its work in robot perception, dexterous manipulation, and human-robot interaction, promote research exchange through high-level academic conferences and industry events, and remain committed to cultivating research innovation and producing high-quality innovative results.
