Third time lucky (barring travel chaos due to the rain...) This Wednesday at 3pm in CB11.09.215, Kosta and Felix will be giving a recap of their recent trip to ICRA! Kosta has provided the following information about accessing the proceedings: I uploaded the proceedings to our teams: https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/ihhvCBNqjlC8yAw4LszfBi2xF9U?domain=s…<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/ihhvCBNqjlC8yAw4LszfBi2xF9U?domain=s…> They must have used the same broken software to compile the index pdf documents as for IROS which means that none of the links to the papers work and it doesn't even display the paper number anywhere. To solve this, I created an html based index with working links. There are two versions of it: index.html which works if you copy all the files locally and index_teamslinks.html which has the links so they work online on teams. I guess the best way to browse this is to use the pdf documents (in the data folder) to see what is in which session and then look up the paper title in the html file to open it. As in previous years, I've created a slideshow for people to add "one-slide summaries" of any papers they think are interesting. It's available here: https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/SNvOCD1vlpT3yMEV8t5hPijyuKO?domain=d…<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/SNvOCD1vlpT3yMEV8t5hPijyuKO?domain=d…> The next presenters after this will be: - 09 July: Cancelled due to Navantia project field trial - 16 July: James See you all there! -- Ed Bray (he/him/his) Postdoctoral Research Fellow Robotics Institute School of Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology University of Technology Sydney UTS CRICOS Provider Code: 00099F DISCLAIMER: This email message and any accompanying attachments may contain confidential information.

Change of Day from w/c 28 July

Hi everyone, The Spring 2025 teaching semester is starting soon, during which Graeme's will have teaching commitments on Wednesday afternoons (possibly involving me too). We thought it was best to try and reschedule CDMRG for some other time for this period. This will begin the week commencing 28 July. Please fill in this quick poll to find a new time to have CDMRG: https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/IGIIC81V0PTYrrPADTnfOhyJ7s8?domain=w… Afternoons generally work best, so the poll only includes times from 13:00. Please select any times you can usually make, and remember to put your name down so I can tell who's still left to respond.
