IROS 2012
"ECHORD – scientific results and tech transfer opportunities"
Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012
Vilamoura, Portugal
presentation ALEXA / EXECELL / HYROPA 
ECHORD (European Clearing House for Open Robotics Development) is a project funded by the European Commission emphasizing the need for a tighter cooperation between academia and industry in robotics.
After the set-up phase, where 51 focused projects, so-called experiments, were selected based on independently evaluated proposals, this project has the unique opportunity to accompany these projects scientifically by the mechanism of a “structured dialogue” and thus to gain additional knowledge for the whole community. At the time of the WS, a part of the experiments will have finished and the others are at different stages of their work, so that an exchange of experiences and plans for knowledge transfer to the industry can take place. ECHORD is funded by the European Commission within the 7th Framework Programme, Challenge 2: Cognitive Systems, Interaction, Robotics (FP7-ICT-231143, http://www.echord.info).
12 experimenting partners will present their results to an international audience and discuss the transfer opportunities with special emphasis on TRL (Technology Readiness Level). Besides talks and discussions, the workshop will play an important role as networking event for the ECHORD partners.
