Welcome Message
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is our great pleasure to welcome you to Belo Horizonte,
Brazil for the ICAR 2019 - 19th International Conference on Advanced Robotics!
As one of the oldest and more prestigious robotics conference, ICAR was idealized by the late
Professors Hanafusa and Umetani to be an event focused on research-oriented advances in
robotics. Its first edition was held in the early summer of 1983 in Tokyo, Japan inspiring and
preceding ICRA - the International Conference on Robotics and Automation by just one year.
This edition of ICAR has a special meaning as memory takes us almost 30 years ago to 1991 in
Pisa, Italy, when at the 5th ICAR the co-chairs of this edition first met, and they hope that beyond
an excellent technical meeting, this may also be an opportunity to foster lasting friendships.
ICAR 2019 would not be possible without the earnest and diligent efforts of the Organizing Chairs:
Luiz Chaimowicz, Douglas Macharet, Armando Neto, the Program Chair: Guilherme Pereira and
co-chairs: Leonardo Mattos, Paulo Drews, Denis Wolf, and the Publication Chair: Erickson
Nascimento, Tutorial/Workshops Chairs: Bruno Adorno, Luciano Pimenta, Vítor A. M. Jorge.
We are also most thankful to IEEE and RAS for the technical co-sponsorship and our sponsors for
their gracious support.
Finally, we warmly thank you, the conference participants, for making ICAR 2019 a success and
expect that your time at Belo Horizonte, will be a most enjoyable and memorable one.

Welcome Reception
Monday December 2, 18:00 - 20:00
ICAR 2019 will welcome its participants with a two-hour reception, on Monday December 2, in the
Foyer and the Terrace section on Meeting Level 1 of the Center for Didactic Activities 3 (CAD 3) of
the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. The participants will take in the spectacular view of the
Governor Magalhães Pinto Stadium (Minerão), reconnect with old friends and meet new
colleagues. The standing reception will serve a variety of food choices as well as alcoholic and
non-alcoholic beverages to fully registered ICAR delegates.
Coffee Breaks
Coffee Breaks will be provided throughout the five days of the conference, twice a day. Serving
stations will be located conveniently outside the Session Rooms, Ballrooms, and the Exhibit Hall.
Located in Brumadinho (Minas Gerais), just 60 km away from Belo Horizonte, the institute has a
total area of 1942.25 acres, mostly located in the biome of the Atlantic Forest. Of the total area,
1087.26 acres are marked as preservation areas, of which 359 acres are part of the Reserva
Particular do Patrimônio Natural RPPN, which makes it a natural heritage site. These geographic

Plenary I
The Era of Human-Robot Collaboration
Abstract
Robotics is undergoing a major transformation in scope and dimension with accelerating impact on
the economy, production, and culture of our global society. The generations of robots now being
developed will increasingly touch people and their lives. They will explore, work, and interact with
humans in their homes, workplaces, in new production systems, and in challenging field domains.
The emerging robots will provide increased support in mining, underwater, hostile environments, as
well as in domestic, health, industry, and service applications. Combining the experience and
cognitive abilities of the human with the strength, dependability, reach, and endurance of robots
will fuel a wide range of new robotic applications. This approach is illustrated in the context of
Ocean One, a bimanual humanoid robotic diver that brings intuitive haptic physical interaction to
oceanic environments. The new robots allow humans to be physically distanced from dangerous
and unreachable spaces while connecting their skills, intuition, and experience to the task promises
to fundamentally alter remote work. These robots will search for and acquire materials, build
infrastructure, and perform disaster prevention and recovery operations – be it deep in oceans and
mines, at mountain tops, or in space.

Plenary III
Introducing Autonomy in robotic surgery: technologies and first
implementations
Abstract
It is rather unlikely that, in our lifetime, we will see a fully autonomous robot performing an
unassisted surgery. However, it is very possible that some form of autonomous assistance to the
surgical process will be introduced to robotic surgery in the near future. Thus, we need to analyze
the ethical, legal and practical implications of autonomous surgical robots, discuss what parts of
autonomy are feasible with realistic technologies, and what could be their real benefits to patients
and surgeons. In this talk I will present our current research in cognitive architectures for
autonomous task execution and show the results of learning and executing simple training task,
environment modelling and developing novel sensorized instruments.
Biography
Paolo Fiorini, received the Laurea degree in Electronic Engineering from the University of Padova
(Italy), the MSEE from the University of California at Irvine (USA), and the Ph.D. in ME from UCLA

Key Technologies For Autonomous Robotic Surgery
Thursday December 5, 09:00-17:00 - Room 106
This tutorial / workshop aims at introducing the main concepts of robotic surgery and to discuss
the emerging field of autonomous robotic surgery (ARS). The addition of autonomy to robotic
surgery involves the integration of complex mechatronic systems with advanced perceptual and
reasoning capabilities that require detailed models and accurate control. Examples of cognitive
features are surgical task analysis, situation awareness, and automatic task execution. This
tutorial will be organized in five sections: (i) basic concepts of design and (ii) control of a surgical
robot, (iii) advanced surgical robotic systems, (iv) surgeon-robot interfaces, and (v) issues related
to task modeling and integration of perception and reasoning into the robot control loop.
Advances in these areas have been pursued during recent European projects such as ISUR
(Intelligent Surgical Robot), ARS and CASCADE (Cognitive AutonomouS CAtheter operating in
Dynamic Environments) and ATLAS (Joint doctoral program in autonomous intraluminal surgery).
Specific solutions will be presented during the tutorial and put in the broader ARS context. The
main advantages and challenges of using cognition in such difficult application will be highlighted.
During the workshop contributions from interested parties will be presented and analysed. The
discussion will help shape the future research directions in this promising field.

Robotics for Occupational Safety & Health in Industrial
Environments (ROSHIE)
Thursday December 5, 13:30-17:00 - Room 107
At ICAR 2019, the 1st ROSHIE workshop will capture and highlight recent trends in the field of
robotics for occupational safety and health (OSH). The OSH paradigm recognizes the direct and
indirect consequences, both human and economic, of work-related accidents and disorders.
Successful OSH practices, especially in labour-intensive and hazardous work environments,
address issues ranging from industrial hygiene, engineering safety, ergonomics, exposure to
toxicity, radiation, and explosions, among others. As two separate issues, efforts in OSH have to
address “health” and “safety” both individually and concurrently.
From the occupational health perspective, the most frequent threat to workers is musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs) due to material handling (> 30% of the worker population in the EU), repetitive
movements (63%) and awkward body postures (46%). In the last years, wearable assistive robotic
devices have shown their potential benefit in the reduction of the muscular efforts of the operator
during manual handling tasks. For instance, lifting and lowering operations could benefit from an
assistive device for the lower back of the user. Some other industrial applications would require
postural support, where the operator is forced to adopt awkward positions. In an industrial setting,
wearable robots could become a daily use equipment. Therefore, its acceptability by the operators
is a key design motivation.
From the occupational safety perspective, even routine tasks in certain work environments expose
workers to extreme risks, such as disaster response and recovery, nuclear decommissioning,
industry (chemical, petro-chemical, and iron & steel), marine and underwater operations, etc. After
the Fukushima disaster and following the DARPA Robotics Challenge (2015), the scientific
community has seen renewed interest in advanced robotic locomotion and manipulation
technologies, focused on substituting human operators in hazardous environments. In recent
years, humanoids and quadruped robots have seen advanced trials in real-world environments,
providing important learnings in tackling the challenges in autonomous navigation, remote robotic
teleoperation in bilateral haptic control, 3D visualization and environment perception, collaborative
control, communication bandwidth and latencies, etc. The invited speakers will share their
experiences in developing and testing robotic technologies for occupational safety and health. The
workshop provides a forum to discuss new strategies that can be adopted towards real-world
deployments of robotics systems for OSH.

Thursday December 5, 09:00-12:30 - Room 301
Robots are more and more among humans in different scenarios and contexts, such as industries,
houses, restaurants, and construction sites. Either working directly with humans as direct contact
handlers or assembling different parts, robots often need to perform tasks that require physical
interaction with objects, other robots or people.
And as the amount of robots grow in our midst, physical robot interaction requirements will also be
more demanding and challenging, which might call for different controller designs and paradigms.
To properly control physical interaction is critical in both manipulation and collaborative tasks in
unstructured environments where contact forces exist. However, most of the industrial robots in
industry do not have interaction controllers available at hand. Therefore, they are not suitable for
collaborative tasks, which is a trend in this field. Also, wearable robotic devices, as exoskeletons
and rehabilitation, are also motivators for a deeper comprehension of physical robot interaction.
This half-day workshop will bring together key researchers of academia and industry to discuss the
potential, the implementation, and limitations of physical robot interaction applications and
controllers.

Applications of Dual Quaternion Algebra to Robotics
Thursday December 5, 13:30-17:00 - Room 301
Dual quaternion algebra has proven to be a very powerful mathematical tool to represent both
physical phenomena, such as rigid motions, twists, and wrenches, in addition to several
mathematical objects such as Plücker lines, planes, points, spheres, cylinders, etc. in a
straightforward way, which is useful when describing geometrical tasks directly in the task-space.
Thanks to those advantages, there has been an increasing interest in the study of kinematic and
dynamic representations of robotic systems using dual quaternion algebra. Those works comprise
rigid motion stabilization, tracking, and multiple body coordination, kinematic control of
manipulators with single and multiple arms, algorithms for inverse dynamics analysis and, also,
applications to human-robot interaction and surgical robotics. This workshop has three main
objectives: (i) to consolidate such contributions through talks from academic leaders across
different fields of applications; (ii) introduce novel theories and applications in such emerging field
through talks from applicants and (iii) provide a proper forum for discussion of benefits, drawbacks
and ongoing works with respect to dual quaternion algebra within the robotics community.

Deep Learning for Robotic Image Perception in GPUs: an
Introductory Hands-on Tutorial
Friday December 6, 09:00-17:00 - Room 106
What is it? Deep Learning methods are currently the state-of-the-art in many image-related
problems. This 6-hour tutorial explores Deep Learning for Robotics Image Perception in vector
processors through a hands-on approach. Participants will have the opportunity to apply deep
neural networks (DNNs) to image classification problems through a simplified set of tools,
frameworks and data pipelines commonly used to train and deploy DNN in customised GPUs.
Audience: Undergraduate and graduate students, university lecturers and researchers interested
in the field of deep learning for robotic image perception. Level: Elementary 70% up to Intermediate
30% Skills: Basics of programming. No previous experience is required in any of the machine
learning tools and libraries explored in this tutorial: Caffe, TensorFlow, DIGITS e Python Jupyter
Notebook.
Learning goals: The expected outcome for each participant is that they gather an understanding
of the fundamentals of deep learning in parallel processors (e.g., GPUs):
● To explore deep machine learning in vector processors in the cloud and embedded in
real-world applications;
● To implement a pipeline of commonly used deep learning tasks;
● To experiment with datasets, fine-tune neural net training parameters, structure the inner
layers of a network, and understand other strategies to improve the performance of a neural
network;
● To integrate and deploy neural nets in the participant own technical field in order to solve
real-world problems.
