Presenters Sought for Robotics Sessions at International Robots, Vision & Motion Control Conference

POSTED 02/18/2009

v style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt">RIA currently seeks speakers for the upcoming International Robots, Vision & Motion Control Show and Conference set for June 9-11, 2009, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.

The event, which is expected to attract some 5000 participants, with an estimated 500 people attending conference sessions, is held just once every two years. Despite the current weakness in the economy, RIA expects a strong turnout at the conference.

"Companies are still investing in robotics and seeking ways to apply them more successfully," said Jeffrey A. Burnstein, RIA's President. "Our conference focuses on practical, real-world issues, which is why attendance is usually very good."

RIA plans to hold sessions on the following topics:

Robots in a Lean Manufacturing World
Successful Applications of Robotics
Vision Guided Robotic Solutions
Advances in Robotic Simulation
Cost Justifying Robotic Investments
Advances in Robotics Packaging & Palletizing
Green Manufacturing with Robotics

Anyone interested in giving a non-commercial presentation on one of these topics or a related topic should submit an abstract by Tuesday, March 3. Click here for the abstract form. Or, you can send an email to [email protected] or call RIA Headquarters at 734/994-6088.
