About the KUKA Innovation Award

For eight years now, KUKA has been promoting innovations in the field of robot-based automation and the transfer of technology from research to industry as part of the “KUKA Innovation Award” science competition. The competition is aimed at developers, graduates and research teams from universities or companies. Participants develop ideas based on a task specified by KUKA. Each year, the focus is on a different technology.

Last year, the focus was on artificial intelligence in industry. Find out which concept was convincing and why it also involved resolving conflicts in the article Artificial Intelligence in the Industry: These are the winners of the KUKA Innovation Award 2021.
