 The integration of human and robotic collaboration in complex environments, such as agriculture,underwater exploration, and domestic settings, presents significant scientific challenges and opportunities.As technology advances, the need for seamless interaction between humans and robots has become a central focus for achieving efficient, safe, and robust operations in dynamic, unstructured fields. The scientific motivation behind this workshop stems from the following key areas:

1 Advanced Human-Robot Collaboration: Developing robots capable of understanding and predicting human intentions is critical for enhancing collaboration. This requires breakthroughs in perception, decision-making, and shared control systems that adapt to the dynamic nature of fieldenvironments.

2 Field-Specific Robotic Challenges: Robots deployed in real-world fields—whether in agriculture, disaster relief, or underwater exploration—must handle uncertain terrain, unpredictable obstacles, and variable environmental conditions. Research into robust locomotion, adaptive sensing, and task-specific intelligence drives this field forward.

3 Multi-Agent and Team Coordination: Coordinating multiple robots or mixed human-robot teams in collaborative tasks remains an unsolved challenge in many applications. Scientific innovation is needed in distributed decision-making, task allocation, and real-time communication.

4 Inspired Technologies for Real-World Impact: Inspired by innovations across fields like AI, machine learning, and autonomous systems, this workshop seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical advancements and practical applications. Technologies developed for robotics competitions such as RoboCup@Home, underwater robot trials, and agricultural robot tasks provide valuable testbeds for real-world deployment.

5 Education Through Competition: Robotics competitions have proven to be powerful tool for education. Through discussions, presentations, and collaborative activities, this workshop will not only address fundamental scientific challenges but also identify future directions for real-world applications of human-robot collaboration.
