<p>Dear all,</p>
<div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space;

<div class="" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Given the
unexpected interest of students applying for the 2022 IEEE RAS
Summer School on Multi-Robot Systems and the linked support we
received from the Czech Technical University in Prague, we have
decided to extend the number of applicants that can participate
in the Summer School being held on August 1-5, 2022 in Prague,
Czech Republic. Visit <a
href="http://mrs.felk.cvut.cz/summer-school-2022/"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">http://mrs.felk.cvut.cz/summer-school-2022/</a> for
details and the list of invited lecturers from top robotics
laboratories worldwide. This will allow us to provide the
knowledge and the interesting content of the Summer School to
the broadest audience possible. At the same time, it could be a
unique opportunity for networking of young scientists working in
similar fields of research. Moreover, we have obtained more UAVs
with various sensors from sponsors, so the students will be able
to make even more demanding experiments. <br class="">
<br class="">
The Summer School is proper for last year bachelor’s students,
master’s students, and PhD students, but we would also like to
invite young scientists from both industry and academia. Mainly
the planned HW experiments with a fleet of real UAVs realized by
students during the Summer School practicals could be within
their interest.<br class="">
<br class="">
You can find more details about the Summer School in the call
for participation with deadline <span class="">June 1, 2022</span> below

<div class=""><span class="">Following the great success of
Summer Schools in Singapore, 2016 and in Prague, 2019 &
2020 the MRS RAS technical committee is organising 2022 IEEE
RAS Summer School on Multi-Robot Systems </span><a

class="moz-txt-link-freetext">http://mrs.felk.cvut.cz/summer-school-2022/</a><span
class=""> which will be held again at the campus of Czech
Technical University located at the heart of the historic
city of Prague.</span><br class="">
<br class="">
<span class="">The Summer School aims to promote the newest
achievements in multi-robot systems and swarm robotics to
students, academic researchers, and industrial practitioners
to enable putting systems of cooperating robots into
practice. The content of the Summer School will be focused
but not limited to systems of cooperating aerial vehicles.
The topics addressed by well-recognised experts in the field
of Multi-Robot Systems are composed to provide the
participants necessary knowledge for understanding the
available theory and for realisation real-world experiments
with a fleet of autonomous micro aerial vehicles in the last
day of the Summer School. This year the school will be
focused on deployment of MRS in real-world conditions being
motivated by EU AERIAL-CORE </span><a

class=""> project and DARPA SubT challenge </span><a
href="http://www.subtchallenge.com/" class="">www.subtchallenge.com</a><br
class="">
<br class="">
<span class="">The school is considered for presence
participants primarily since a minimal amount of COVID cases
and no travel restrictions were experienced in the Czech
Republic in July-August in 2020 and 2021. Nevertheless, we
will allow also virtual participation for students from
countries with travel restrictions or limitations.</span><br
