The Texas Regional Robotics Symposium (TEROS) aims to bring together Texas robotics researchers. TEROS is a one-day event with research talks, poster presentations, and social activities. The goal of TEROS is to share exciting ideas and build new connections in the robotics research community in Texas.
After the success of its first edition at the University of Texas at Austin, the second edition of TEROS was at Rice in Houston. We are excited to announce that TEROS 2024 will be held on April 30, 2024 at Texas A&M University's Zachry Engineering Education Complex.
Public Registration: Link
TEROS will be held as a one-day event with keynote talks, spotlight talks, poster presentations, industry booths, robotics lab tours, and social activities. A detailed schedule is included below.
Along with talks from distinguished speakers, the symposium will feature exciting posters and industry booths. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with the poster and booth presenters during networking sessions scheduled throughout the day.
