2nd International Conference on Applied Robotics for the Power Industry

CARPI 2012 will bring together people from research and industry interested in robotics applications for the power industry. Both researcher enthusiastic to show their new robots and algorithms as well as industrial people proudly presenting their newest implementations or looking for new methods are warmly welcome to participate and contribute.

After the first very successful CARPI 2010 in Montréal, the community declared the wish to meet again every 2 years. Thanks to the Montréal organizers and the enthusiasm of the participants, the next gathering will be in Zurich, Switzerland in September 2012.
