Automart network

Abstract

[eng] Automar is a research network in automatic control and robotics for the marine industry and marine sciences. Automar brings together scholars from universities and research centres, encouraging knowledge exchange, training and cooperation among the different members of the scientific and industrial community. To that end, the members of the network organize scientific and technical meetings, courses, tutorials and conferences on a regular basis. Since its initial steps in 2002, Automar has organized more than ten events, promoting scientific education or cooperation and disseminating know-how among its partners, industrial companies and marine technology end-users. Throughout that time, the size of the network has progressively expanded to include more than fifteen research groups.
