He will discuss how the robotics industry is poised to achieve significant advances in capability through the convergence of technologies especially critical for the service-robot segment that employs highly interactive mobile units.
"There are important lessons over the past 30 years that new emerging industries can learn from to achieve a new level of functionality," Weisel said, referring to some of the highlights of his keynote session. "There are pitfalls that must be avoided, and we'll also explore how multi-industry collaboration and standards are necessary to support the 'new' robotics industries."
The rapidly growing service robot industry comprises unmanned devices used in the military, space, homeland security, health care, underwater exploration and other markets. According to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, in cooperation with the International Federation of Robotics, the value of the stock of service robots for professional use is estimated at $3.6 billion. The professional-use service robots stock is forecast to increase by some 50,000 units through 2008. Application areas with strong growth include underwater systems, defense, rescue and security applications, medical robots and mobile robot platforms for multiple uses.
Weisel has 33 years' experience in control systems, robotics and automation, and introduced the world's first 100 percent voice-activated robotic arm and PC computer workstation for the severely disabled, including quadriplegics.
