Report on the AAAI 2010 Robot Exhibition

This year, the Robotics Exhibition included two such robotics challenge problems: manipulation and learning by demonstration. In the Small-Scale Manipulation Challenge four teams demonstrated systems playing robotic chess. This exhibit was organized by David Touretzky and Monica D. Anderson. In the Learning by Demonstration Challenge, three teams demonstrated systems learning a block-sorting task. This exhibit was organized by Sonia Chernova. Additionally, this year marked another successful turnout for the Robotics Education Track, organized by Zachary Dodds, which highlights student-and educator-led robotics projects. In this article we give a summary of these three components of the exhibition.
