IFAC World Congress is organized by the International Federation of Automatic Control every three years. This year at the 17th IFAC World Congress in Seoul, Korea, LARICS Ph.D. student Alan Mutka defended LARICS colors by presenting the paper “A low-cost vision-based localization system using fiducial markers”. Alan was impressed by the size of the event and perfect organization which included the presentation of new humanoid robots designed especially for research.
