A legacy carried by the event

A bridge between generations

The event carries Professor Vukobratović’s name as a bridge between a scientific legacy and the new generations only now stepping into robotics, programming and technology projects.

A living link to knowledge

The idea is not a long biography but a living link: to show young people that knowledge created here can matter worldwide, and that every new generation can add a contribution of its own.

Academic support

The academic link with ETF Belgrade (School of Electrical Engineering, University of Belgrade) keeps the continuity between the professor’s legacy and the programmes developing through the event today.

Knowledge created here
can matter worldwide

Vukobratović Robotics Days carries the professor’s name as a reminder: that research done in Belgrade left its mark across the world, and that the young people learning, building and testing today can do the same.
