Taipei, May 31 (CNA) Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) said Wednesday that its expertise in the field of robotics has been highlighted at the 2017 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) in Singapore.

Hu Jwu-sheng, vice president of ITRI and director general of the Mechanical and Mechatronics Systems Research Laboratories, has been invited to serve as one of the industrial forum chairs at the world's largest robotics conference, which is being held May 29 to June 3, ITRI said.

Meanwhile, Nelson Yen-Chung Chang, manager of ITRI's Mechanical and Systems Research Laboratories, was invited to share the institute's R&D achievements at the forum on Wednesday, ITRI said.

In his presentation, Chang introduced the ITRI's motion intelligence orchestration (MIO) industrial robotics controller, which has enhanced dynamics control and improved trajectory precision, boosting robotic arm precision by a factor of 10.

This will be conducive to precision assembly automation in the aerospace and timepiece industries and will help Taiwan companies access global business opportunities, Chang said.

Meanwhile, ITRI's MIO industrial robotics controller and PC-based motion control card EPCIO have been on display at the annual conference, which is being held under the theme of "Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Real-world Solutions."

The theme underscores the need for innovative R&D talent, dynamic and goal-driven entrepreneurs and practitioners using robotics and automation technology to solve challenging real-world problems such as labor shortages, ageing societies, and sustainable environments, ITRI said.

ICRA is considered the source of many groundbreaking technologies for robotics, self-driving vehicles, and artificial intelligence. At ICRA, top researchers around the globe meet annually to discuss the latest innovations in robotics and automation.
