Welcome to the 2025 IEEE 1st International Conference on Materials, Robotics & Automation, Computer and Control (ICMRACC 2025). It is with great excitement and anticipation that we gather for this groundbreaking event, designed to be a premier platform for the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and innovations across interconnected fields of materials science, robotics, automation, computing, and control systems. As we convene for the first time under the ICMRACC banner, we are poised to explore the profound impact of these disciplines in shaping the future of technology and society.
In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, the convergence of materials science, robotics, automation, computing, and control is driving a new era in innovation. Once distinct, these fields are now deeply intertwined, giving rise to advanced systems and solutions that are transforming industries and everyday life. ICMRACC 2025 is dedicated to exploring this convergence, highlighting the synergies between these disciplines, and showcasing how they collectively contribute to the development of smarter, more efficient, and sustainable technologies.Materials science is at the core of this convergence, providing the foundation for innovation in robotics and automation. The development of new materials, ranging from smart materials that can change their properties in response to environmental stimuli to nanomaterials with extraordinary strength and conductivity, has opened up new possibilities in the design and function of robotic systems. These advancements are further amplified by the integration of advanced computing techniques such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, which enable robots and automated systems to learn, adapt, and make decisions in real time.Control systems play a critical role in ensuring the stability, efficiency, and reliability of complex systems. The ability to precisely control processes, whether in industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, or smart grids, is essential for maximizing the performance and minimizing risks. As these fields continue to evolve, the integration of cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things (IoT) has created new opportunities for innovation, connecting the physical and digital worlds in ways that enhance our ability to monitor, manage, and optimize complex systems.
The primary objective of the ICMRACC 2025 is to serve as a hub for interdisciplinary collaboration. The challenges and opportunities presented by the convergence of materials, robotics, automation, computing, and control cannot be fully addressed within the confines of a single discipline. Therefore, ICMRACC 2025 was designed to bring together experts from various fields, fostering an environment where cross-disciplinary collaboration can thrive.
Throughout the conference, participants had the opportunity to engage with a diverse array of topics, ranging from the latest advancements in smart materials and autonomous systems to cutting-edge research in control theory and artificial intelligence. The technical sessions covered a broad spectrum of themes, including but not limited to:
Explore the development and application of materials that are critical for next-generation robotics, electronics, and energy systems.
Delve into the design, control, and application of autonomous robots, collaborative robots (cobots), and robotic systems in manufacturing, healthcare, and other fields.
Examine how AI and machine learning are being integrated into control systems to enhance automation, predictive maintenance, and real-time decision-making.
Discuss the evolution of control strategies, including adaptive, robust, and nonlinear control, as well as the challenges of controlling systems over networks and in real- time.
Understanding how the integration of cyber-physical systems and IoT enables the creation of smart environments that are connected, responsive, and adaptive.
ICMRACC 2025 will feature keynote addresses from leading experts who will share their insights into the latest trends, challenges, and future directions in their respective fields. These thought-provoking discussions will provide a broader perspective on the role of materials, robotics, automation, computing, and control in shaping the future. In addition to technical sessions and keynote speeches, ICMRACC 2025 offers a series of workshops and panel discussions. These sessions were designed to provide hands-on experience and deeper exploration of specific topics, allowing participants to engage in more detailed discussions and collaborative problem-solving. Whether you are a researcher, industry professional, or student, these workshops offer valuable opportunities to learn from and collaborate with others in the field. Networking is another key component of the ICMRACC 2025. We recognize the importance of building connections and fostering partnerships that can lead to future collaborations and innovations. The conference provides ample opportunities for informal interactions, including social events, poster sessions, and dedicated networking breaks. These activities are designed to encourage the exchange of ideas and formation of new professional relationships.
As we gather for ICMRACC 2025, we are reminded of the significant challenges and opportunities that will lie ahead. The integration of materials, robotics, automation, computing, and control has the potential to revolutionize industries, improve quality of life, and address some of the world’s most pressing issues, from sustainability to healthcare. However, realizing this potential requires collaboration, creativity, and commitment to push the boundaries between what is possible.
We invite you to actively participate in this exciting journey. Your contributions, whether by presenting your latest research, engaging in discussions, or networking with fellow attendees, will be crucial in advancing our collective understanding and driving the future of these fields.
