APAC Innovation Summit (AIS) 2017 - Robotics Conference

Monday, 05.06.2017 – Tuesday, 06.06.2017, APAC Innovation Summit

Conference

Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) rarely has a physical format but it penetrates into wide segments of our daily lives, with huge implications for a wide range of industries, such as industrial automation, services, transportation and wellness. Any robotics without A.I. is just a tool; only solutions embedded with A.I. would become intelligent, just as human with a brain has the ability to self-learn and even learn from each other. While A.I. is taking the world stage and transforming it in the process, this conference will bring together a world cast of leading experts including academia, decision makers and thought leaders to exchange insights on the latest trends.

ETH Professor Dr. Roland Siegwart will be a Keynote Speaker on 5.6.2017 at 2:30 pm.
