HRF 2026 | 1st Hellenic Robotics Forum Details

HERMES Team from the University of Thessaly recently participated in the highly successful 1st Hellenic Robotics Forum (HRF 2026). Hosted at the iconic Eugenides Foundation in Athens and organized by HERON - Hellenic Robotics Center of Excellence, this two-day event was an invaluable gathering of the Greek and international robotics community. It was an action-packed couple of days connecting with researchers, industry professionals, and innovators! We were honored to contribute to the momentum of Robotics and AI research in Greece by: -Taking the stage during the spotlight session to present our latest paper. -Receiving a distinction in the Best Student Paper Award category! We are thrilled to see our team’s hard work and dedication recognized at such a prestigious forum. -Presenting our poster paper: « HERMES EXO: Empowering mobility with modular Lower-limb robotic exoskeleton for CYBATHLON 2024. » -Hosting our own exhibition booth, which provided a unique platform to discuss our exoskeleton design, our journey to CYBATHLON, and the future of assistive tech with so many of you! A huge thank you to HERON, the HRF 2026 organizers, and everyone who stopped by our booth and poster session. The energy and enthusiasm were truly inspiring!
