There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Spending three days in late October at RoboBusiness was nothing short of an intensive, mini-briefing on what’s ahead for robotics in 2014. Mentally invigorating is more like it.
Putting robotics into context with a perspective toward industry, work and society for 2014 is a primary task for anyone ramping up to get a handle on the approaching technical and market opportunities. The first two hours of the morning keynotes at RoboBusiness were highlighted by presentations that did just that.
These keynote sessions provided an excellent grounding in What are We? Where are We Going? and The Road Ahead for U.S. Robotics, from RoboBusiness co-chairman, Dan Kara, and Georgia Institute’s Henrik Christensen, respectively.
