Robots and humans do not always behave as expected and the results can be entertaining and even enlightening - therefore instances of failures will also be considered. We invite all researchers in the HRI area to share their best videos that may have been taken accidentally or intentionally.A panel of your peers will review video submissions. Besides the importance of the lessons learned экскурсия на киностудию Мосфильм and the novelty of the situation, the entertainment value will be judged.
