The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $169,252 Project Grant to the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) to organize and execute the 2024 National Robotics Initiative (NRI)/Foundational Research in Robotics (FRR) Principal Investigator (PI) Meeting. The meeting will convene investigators of active NSF FRR and NRI program awards for the ninth time since these programs began in 2011 and 2020 respectively. Taking place April 28-30, 2024 in Baltimore, Maryland, the meeting will feature presentations, poster sessions, workshops, panel discussions, keynote talks, and agency program updates for a community of robotics researchers. The award also supports participation by potential future proposers to the FRR program. This annual PI meeting serves as a national forum for the NSF FRR and NRI research communities to share their work, explore new ideas and partnerships, and interact with stakeholders. The meeting is funded under the NSF's Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program.
