IROS On-Demand (goes live Oct 25, 2020) is the platform to view pre-recorded videos of the 1400+ Technical Talks, Plenaries and Keynotes, and 60+ Workshops and Tutorials.

The Technical Talks are grouped into 12 categories (called carousels). Each carousel hosts 20 sessions on average (called shows). Each show hosts 5-8 technical talks (called episodes). Each talk features its digest slide, pre-recorded video presentation, and the paper's PDF.

Because all content is pre-recorded, one is freed from global time zone differences. This enables one to easily access content, anywhere, anytime, and with any device. More details (like 15-second User Intro video) of On-Demand will be released when it goes live Oct 25, 2020.

Unlike in-person conferences, interactive networking events (like Lunch with Leaders and Town Hall Meetings) are impractical with On-Demand, given global time zone differences. However, the IROS Original Series hosts unique content that would be difficult to see at in-person events; this novel series will feature candid interviews of unique members of our community and lab tours.
