Aims & Scope

Industrial Robot publishes peer reviewed research articles, technology reviews and specially commissioned case studies. Each issue includes high quality content covering all aspects of robotic technology, and reflecting the most interesting and strategically important research and development activities from around the world. The journal’s policy of not publishing work that has only been tested in simulation means that only the very best and most practical research articles are included. This ensures that the material that is published has real relevance and value for commercial manufacturing and research organizations. Industrial Robot's coverage includes, but is not restricted to: Automatic assembly Flexible manufacturing Programming optimisation Simulation and offline programming Service robots Autonomous robots Swarm intelligence Humanoid robots Prosthetics and exoskeletons Machine intelligence Military robots Underwater and aerial robots Cooperative robots Flexible grippers and tactile sensing Robot vision Teleoperation Mobile robots Search and rescue robots Robot welding Collision avoidance Robotic machining Surgical robots Call for Papers 2020 AI for Autonomous Unmanned Systems Agricultural Robot Brain-Computer Interfaces for Human-Robot Interaction Cooperative Robots Robots for Environmental Monitoring Rehabilitation Robots Wearable Robotics/Exoskeletons.
