Activities

[edit]

The purpose of the International Federation of Robotics is to promote research, development, use and international co-operation in the field of robotics, both industrial automated robots and service robots. The IFR is also coordinator of the International Symposium on Robotics (ISR), one of the oldest conferences for robotics research, founded in 1970.[1]

Members

[edit]

Today nearly all international industrial robot suppliers and 17 national robots associations are members of IFR.[2] Headquarters of this umbrella organization of national robotics associations is in Frankfurt, Germany.[3]
