| HISPABOT 2003 SEMINAR |  |
Scientific comittee and organizers 
The National micro-robot National Contest and Seminar,
HISPABOT 2003, kindly asks for scientific communications for its first edition,
which will take place at the Politechnic-Scool of the University of Alcalá (Madrid, Spain),
during the 29th and 30th of April 2003.
HISPABOT wishes to be a meeting point for Latin American and Spanish researchers in the
areas of interest related to micro-robotics. A nice-atmosphere environment where
works-presentations and sharing of knowledge is strongly intended to be provided.
The seminar is open to lecturers and researchers of other countries. Official languages
will be Spanish and English.
The seminar calls for papers in which original works are described, whether from a teaching
point of view or from a research one as well, about any of the subjects that keep in touch
with micro-robotics. They must keep any relation with it, or an application in a micro-robotics
field might be proposed too. In order to simplify the evaluation, organization and presentation
procedures, the areas are structures, though not being exclusive, as follows:
1. Hardware/software platform for micro-robots
2. Sensorial systems on board
3. External sensorial systems
4. Mecatronics
5. Programming techniques
6. Control techniques
7. Mutiagent systems
8. Micro-robot contests. Experience
9. Non-teaching micro-robot applications
10. Theaching applications.
11. Others: nano-robots, special applications,
