Through this briefing, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society is pleased to present a first-hand account of views, opinions, and real-world experiences of experts and practitioners from the industry and academia, to demonstrate how robots are contributing to job growth and sustainability of US industries.

WHEN: 25 July 2013, 2:00-3:30 P.M.
