4D Radar Technology and Advanced Sensor Fusion AI: From Hardware and Signal Processing of 4D Radar to Camera and LiDAR Integration in AI
2025-05-19 08:30 - 12:30
Meeting Room: 412
This tutorial provides a deep dive into 4D radar technology and its integration with other sensor modalities in multimodal AI, with a focus on robotics applications. As robotic systems increasingly operate in complex and dynamic environments, 4D radar has emerged as a pivotal technology, offering high-resolution spatial and velocity information in all weather conditions.
This tutorial is structured in two parts:

Fundamentals of 4D Radar – We cover system architecture, performance characteristics, and signal processing pipeline. We also introduce AI/ML-based approaches tailored to 4D radar.
Advanced Sensor Fusion AI – We explore the integration of 4D Radar with other sensors, multi-modal datasets, and recent advancements in fusion techniques for detection, tracking, and segmentation.

Throughout, we highlight the impacts of 4D radar technology on autonomous systems, including environmental perception, obstacle avoidance, and autonomous navigation, demonstrating how they enhance situational awareness and decision-making.
By the end, participants will gain a strong foundation in 4D radar and sensor fusion AI, equipping them to drive innovation in robotic perception across diverse applications.

Grand Challenges in Robotics for Nuclear Environments: A Call to Action
2025-05-19 08:30 - 12:30
Meeting Room: 309
The last decade has seen significant progress in the development and use of robots in nuclear environments across fission, fusion, and big science (e.g. CERN). Whilst much of the early application focus was on decommissioning and disaster response in highly radioactive environments, this has shifted significantly to encompass day-to-day operations and maintenance in low-radiation areas. Additionally, fusion energy presents a potentially game-changing solution to present climate and energy security challenges, yet has significant outstanding challenges that need solving including those related to robotic maintenance.
Despite these new opportunities, there are still barriers to the wider robotics community engaging with nuclear end-users. This workshop is a Call to Action to the robotics community, presenting a Grand Challenges which act as focal points for fundamental robotics research. These Grand Challenges have been developed by the global nuclear community specifically for the robotics research community to provide direction for the next 5 – 10 years of research. The workshop will also address how to remove barriers with respect to demonstrating research to the nuclear communities to open the application domain to the whole robotics community, through the use of mechanisms such as digital twins, demonstration environments and accessing real-world test facilities.

Handy Moves: Dexterity in Multi-Fingered Hands
2025-05-19 08:30 - 17:30
Meeting Room: 302
Multi-fingered robotic hands hold an immense potential for flexible manipulation in human environments. From using tools like scissors to preparing food, handling cloth, and robustly tying shoelaces, many mundane activities are enabled by – or become more flexible with – additional degrees of freedom, allowing for in-hand manipulation and dexterous environment interaction. With the ongoing waves of advancement in artificial intelligence, learning techniques, robust teleoperation, the proliferation of affordable tactile sensors, and the expansion of diverse datasets, we are closer than ever to overcome major existing challenges and unlock unprecedented levels of dexterity in robotic manipulation.However, we also acknowledge the current state of research: In practical applications, multi-fingered hands usually demonstrate a lower grasping and manipulation success rate compared to two-fingered parallel grippers; more robotic datasets and benchmarks focus on grippers than on multi-fingered hands; and grippers already serve a wide range of industrial applications. In light of these challenges, this workshop is dedicated to exploring a critical question: how can we overcome the challenges of dexterous manipulation and unlock the potential of multi-fingered hands?
This workshop intends to answer this question in four key aspects:
1. Investigating Manipulation Limitations: Understanding the constraints linked to mechanical design and control
2. Examining Advanced Algorithms: Reviewing state-of-the-art algorithms for dexterous manipulation
3. Enhancing Dexterity and Adaptability: Exploring new paradigms to improve the dexterity and adaptability of robotic hands
4. Envisioning the Future: Considering how foundational models can revolutionize dexterous manipulation
The objective of this workshop is to foster collaboration among researchers at all career stages with a strong interest in robotics, artificial intelligence, control theory, mechanical design, and related fields.
