Robotics Society of Singapore

The decision to setup Robotics Society of Singapore (Chinese name as: 新加坡机器人学专业协会) was triggered by the invitation of Professor Tomomasa Kato - President of Robotics Society of Japan in 2010, to Prof. Xie Ming. Prof. Xie Ming has been invited to represent Singapore to participate to the annual meeting under the name of Asian Robotics Society Summit. With the help from James Lee and Xu Jin, the scope and vision for Robotics Society of Singapore was drafted. We position ourselves as a professional, and non profit organisation which aims at nurturing a network of like-minded individuals, organisations and institutions to advance the adoption and development of Robotics. The registration of RSS was approved by the Singapore government on 29 November, 2010 (UEN no.: T10SS0158F). Since its inception, RSS becomes a member of Pacific-Asian Robotics Society Union (PARSU) (www.asian-robotics.org) and represented Singapore in attending PARSU’s annual meetings on regular basis.
