Agenda
https://www.fairspacesummit.com/agenda
Acknowledging an exciting time for the space sector, the agenda showcases cutting-edge research inspired by the exacting demands of working in this extreme environment—and the transformative impact to come from developments in robotics and autonomous systems.
The Future AI & Robotics in Space (FAIR-SPACE) Robotics Summit has been divided into two halves.
Morning Sessions will feature advances from the FAIR-SPACE research and innovation hub founded by six UK Universities (University of Surrey, University of Salford, Imperial College London, University of Edinburgh, University of Liverpool/Manchester and University of Warwick).
The day will then move on to three Panel Forums designed to debate the challenges and future requirements for realising the full potential of the sector.
- Space Industry Roadmap Forum
- Industry Cross-Sector Forum
- Skills & Training Forum
Bringing together academic, government and commercial innovators from around the world the aim is to chart a roadmap for the development. Advances to be featured include new capabilities for autonomous systems, wearables that enhance astronaut safety, intelligent human to robotic teleoperation, and state of the art systems engineering.
Staged discussions will explore and get beyond ambitions for space exploration: anticipating how space infrastructure will continually enhance our knowledge of the earth and serve the many industries that progressively impact our everyday lives; They will also examine the many industrial opportunities to apply space robotics terrestrially.
