A workshop on EU-Funded Marine Robotics and Applications (EMRA) 2018 took place on June 12-13th 2018 at the University of Limerick. The 5th edition of the workshop was organised by Centre for robotics & Intelligent Systems (CRIS) under the H2020 projects EXCELLABUST and SWARMS. EMRA ’18 will summarise current EU FP7 and H2020 projects on marine robotics and provide a platform for marine stakeholders to share and discuss current technological challenges and achievements. EMRA ’18 provides a great opportunity for researchers to disseminate current work and highlight new application areas that warrant further R&D opportunities, while it also gives marine stakeholders a chance to cross-fertilise the ideas and offer novel approaches to meet future challenges in ocean exploration and exploitation.
