[iva] [Meetings][RO-MAN 25] PubRob-Fails 2025 Workshop

[Ana Müller]

Robots are entering everyday life – but what happens when robots meet reality?

Dear Colleagues,

PubRob-Fails 2025 is a full-day workshop dedicated to exploring the challenges, breakdowns, and hard-earned insights that emerge when robots leave the lab and encounter the real world. From perception failures to unpredictable human behavior, our aim is to foster honest reflection, critical dialogue, and a culture of failing forward.

�� 29 August 2025
�� Eindhoven, at IEEE RO-MAN 2025
�� Workshop website: https://www.pubrob.org/events/2025 

�� We believe that sharing what didn’t work can be just as valuable as celebrating what did. As part of the workshop, we are creating a “Wall of Failures” – a community-driven collection of HRI mishaps, hard lessons, and unexpected outcomes. Contributions are welcome from anyone in the community, whether or not they attend the workshop. Contribute or explore here: https://padlet.com/oliverchojnowski/pubrob-fails-2025-wall-of-failures-sw5mvg2la3dbjv0t 
 
Invited Keynote Speakers: Tony Belpaeme, Randy Gomez, Merihan Alhafnawi
 
Agenda Overview ⚡ Lightning Talks �� Keynotes  �� Hands-on Workshop
 
Join us for a day of shared learning – where failures are not just admitted, but celebrated as essential steps toward building better robots for the real world.
 
We look forward to welcoming you in Eindhoven!
 
On behalf of the PubRob-Fails 2025 Organizers,
Ana
