The International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2026 has commenced in Vienna, featuring over 8,000 scholars. The opening day saw significant attention drawn to a rat exoskeleton for neurorehabilitation, which garnered substantial interaction. Discussions also intensified around the differing technical routes for learning in robotics, specifically reinforcement learning versus behavioral cloning, and numerous papers were presented on advancements in tactile sensing, vision-language-action (VLA) control, and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM).
