SUMMARY:ErgoX 2023
DESCRIPTION:The 9th ErgoX Symposium will be held immediately before the 67th Annual Meeting of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES). ErgoX 2023 will be held in Washington\, DC\, at the Washington Hilton Hotel\, on Monday\, Oct. 23\, 2023. Unfortunately\, this will be the same time WearRAcon Europe and ExoBerlin are scheduled. It is highly improbable that the only three conferences dedicated to exoskeleton technology in the fall of 2023 will take place simultaneously\, but somehow it has happened. \nSimilarly to before\, ErgoX will include four separate tracks dedicated to cybersecurity\, exoskeletons\, extended reality\, and robotics. This year\, ErgoX will be held in person again\, providing ample networking opportunities and personally donning wearables. \n“First held in 2015 and over time formalizing into a user-centered design meeting in 2018\, the ErgoX Symposium has demonstrated that a symbiotic approach to improving the design of technology and equipment is possible. With the goal to improve safe and effective technology user adoption\, ErgoX offers a virtual and physical space to showcase the latest in technology evolution\, research\, and application and their intersection with human-system interaction and integration.” \n“As an annual activity designed to showcase and apply the latest ergonomics science to workplace health\, safety\, wellness\, and injury-prevention issues across a variety of domains and settings\, ErgoX aims to address the demand for safe and effective technology development found through a multi-disciplinary and cross-market collaboration of cognitive and physical research and their resulting application to end user technology adoption. “  \n HFES offers detailed and free-of-charge meeting notes from the previous ErgoX symposiums:  \n\n2018 ErgoX Proceedings\n2020 ErgoX Proceedings\n2021 ErgoX Proceedings\n2022 ErgoX Proceedings\n\nVisit the HFES ErgoX Symposium page for the latest.

SUMMARY:WearRAcon Europe 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Wearable Robotics Association Conference European Edition 2023 will take place this year in conjunction with the A+A Trade Fair\, Tuesday through Friday\, October 24- 27\, 2023\, in Düsseldorf\, Germany. \nThe conference will be held with the support of Dr. Urs Schneider\, Director of the Health Technology Division at Fraunhofer IPA in Stuttgart\, famous for the ExoWorkAthlon (link) multi-person live demonstration of occupational exoskeleton testing. Additional information on WearRAcon Europe 23 will be upcoming. \nSchedule and Speakers:\nWearRAcon Europe (or Exo Park) will be a two-day conference on October 25-26 (Wed – Thu). The tentative schedule (link) includes over 30 separate speaker sessions to choose from\, putting on par with any of the WearRA US events. \nAbout WearRAcon Europe\nWearRAcon Europe is an annual event organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation (IPA) and the University of Stuttgart’s Institute of Industrial Manufacturing and Management (IFF)\, in close collaboration with the global exoskeleton interest group\, the Wearable Robotics Association (WearRA). “It aims to present European aspects of the latest innovations in wearable robotics\, with a particular focus on occupational exoskeletons\, and foster interactions between wearable robotics professionals\, end-users from the industry\, experts from the academia\, and representatives from governmental agencies.” \nAbout A+A\nWearRAcon Europe 2023 will take place at the same time as the prestigious A+A trade fair on personal protection\, occupational safety\, and health at work. The organizers of A+A believe that “improving productivity and business success is unavoidably connected with work safety.” \nProduct groups: anti-slip mats\, ear protectors\, fire protection\, flooring\, hand trucks\, helmets\, marking products\, protective clothing\, respirators\, safety gloves\, safety shoes\, vehicles\, and working clothes… \nIndustry sectors: Environment\, Fire protection\, Industrial Safety\, Safety at work\, … \nSimilar to other large trade fairs\, the A+A conference will be spread around multiple presentation halls. As of the time of writing\, it is unknown in which presentation hall WearRAcon Europe 2023 will be located. \nPrevious WearRAcon Europe Events:\n\n2021: WearRAcon Europe 2021 took place as a virtual event. International representatives of various industrial exoskeleton application sectors reported on their experiences in developing\, implementing\, and evaluating exoskeleton systems. Further exoskeleton research topics\, such as exosuits\, digital biomechanics\, as well as human factors influencing acceptance\, were discussed extensively. Notably\, the Laevo Flex was introduced to the public for the first time at the event (link).The 2021 edition also saw the first iteration of the EXOWORKATHLON®\, a physical live experiment putting commercial exoskeletons to the test\, which was held in conjunction with the conference.\n2020: WeRob and WearRAcon Europe joined forces together to create a four-day virtual conference on exoskeletons\, wearable robotics\, rehabilitation devices\, orthotics\, and neuro-rehabilitation held in parallel with the 2020 International Conference on Neurorehabilitation. Keynote speakers include Matt Marino from HeroWear\, Prof. Arun Jayaraman\, hailing from the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab\, and Prof. Roger Gassert\, ETH Zurich.\n2019: WearRAcon Europe 19 was held November 19-20\, 2019\, in collaboration with WearRAcon\, Fraunhofer IPA\, and the University of Stuttgart. WearRAcon Europe was seen as a regional event that enabled the European community to participate\, exchange ideas\, and collaborate in this growing wearable robotics field. Attendees heard from renowned exoskeleton pioneers like Thomas Sugar\, ASU \,and Robert Riener\, ETH Zurich.
