Workshops held at IspaRo 2026: Morning or afternoon of November 5, 2026

We encourage proposals that provide a comprehensive overview of latest developments in orbital robotics, planetary exploration or space assistance. Generic robotic topics (e.g. machine learning, soft robotics, robotic manipulation) are acceptable as long as the proposal is clearly focused on space robotic developments and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted, to:

• Dexterity, Manipulation, and Grasping in Space
• Perception and Locomotion for planetary exploration
• Simulation and validation Platforms for Space Applications
• Modularity in Space Robotics Systems
• Advanced Materials for Space Applications
• In-space Servicing, Assembly and Manufacturing
• Soft robotics for space applications
• Assistant robotics
• Telerobotics
• Generative AI and Automation in Space Exploration
