We would like to share the announcement for the IEEE MRS Summer School 2026, taking place July 29 – August 4, 2026 in Prague.
The event is open to anyone working in multi-robot systems, autonomous UAV/UGV control, distributed coordination, perception, planning, or ROS-based robotics. Over the years the summer school has welcomed more than 1000 participants from academic labs and industry teams worldwide.
The main goal is to bring together people working on similar MRS challenges and create space for collaboration, exchange of ideas, and hands-on experimentation.
What the program includes:
- practical sessions with real multi-robot platforms
- talks from leading researchers in MRS, autonomy, and swarm robotics
- team assignments focusing on coordination, planning, and deployment
- a free weekend for group trips around Prague to encourage networking and community building
Registration:
Early registration fees apply until December 31.
If anyone in your team needs a few extra days, the organizers can extend the reduced fee individually.
