International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems

International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems is a engineering topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems rather than just read about it. In short: IROS, the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, is an annual academic conference covering advances in robotics. It is one of the premier conferences of its field (alongside ICRA, International Conference on Robotics and Automation) with an 'A' rating from the Australian Ranking of ICT Conferences obtained in 2010 and an 'A1' rating from the Brazilian ministry of education in 2012.

Key takeaways

International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems belongs to engineering; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

IROS, the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, is an annual academic conference covering advances in robotics. It is one of the premier conferences of its field (alongside ICRA, International Conference on Robotics and Automation) with an 'A' rating from the Australian Ranking of ICT Conferences obtained in 2010 and an 'A1' rating from the Brazilian ministry of education in 2012. The acceptance rate can vary substantially (for example, it has been 32% in 2011 and 39% in 2012) and IROS typically receives more than 2000 paper submissions (for example, 790 out of 2459 submitted papers have been accepted for IROS 2011).

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems

In research: International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Robotics organizations, Robotics stubs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
