Overview:

Achieving autonomous interaction with the environment and the manifestation of complex behaviors remains a formidable challenge. This challenge, however, holds the key to unlocking a future where robots seamlessly integrate into society. Understanding the intricate mechanisms that drive living beings' ability to navigate and interact with the world has long been a source of inspiration. Neuromorphic engineering, by emulating the computational principles of the brain, offers a promising avenue toward this goal. Our workshop, "Embodied Neuromorphic AI for Robotic Perception and Control," seeks to delve into the intersection of neuromorphic technologies and robotics, exploring how these innovations can revolutionize robot design, from perception to motor control. By fostering discussion on the theoretical underpinnings and practical applications of neuromorphic approaches, we aim to elucidate the transformative potential they hold for creating robots that not only mimic but embody the adaptability and efficiency of living organisms. Through collaborative dialogue and shared insights, we aspire to identify key challenges impeding progress in this field and outline actionable steps for overcoming them. Join us in this endeavor to shape the future of robotics, where intelligent machines seamlessly coexist with humanity, enriching our lives and augmenting our capabilities.
