The Design and Learning Research Group is participating in this year’s IROS conference with a team of seven members led by Prof. Song Chaoyang and six lab members, including Dr. Guo Ning, Han Xudong, Sun Haoran, Wu Tianyu, Ge Sheng, and Xu Ronghan, for one competition and two workshops with three robots.
