The IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) strives for the advancement of the theory and practice of robotics and automation engineering and science and of the allied arts and sciences, and for the maintenance of high professional standards among its members. It was the founding Society for the current chapter, with the individual RAS Chapter first established on November 29, 2023 before joining with two other chapters one and a half years later.
The IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) is dedicated to the advancement of research, development, and practice in automation and control systems. It has broad technical interests in dynamical systems and control that include modeling, adaptation, estimation, optimization, feedback, and software/hardware tools. Application areas include aerospace, automotive, biosystems, communication networks, finance and markets, homes and buildings, manufacturing and process industries, and micro/nano-systems.
The IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society (SMCS) serves the interests of its members and the community at large by promoting the theory, practice, and interdisciplinary aspects of systems science and engineering, human-machine systems, and cybernetics. It accomplishes this through conferences, publications, and other activities that contribute to the professional needs of its members.
The Joint Chapter was established on January 24, 2025.
The IEEE RAS/CSS/SMC Joint Chapter Estonia’s main role is to bring awareness to the wider community about academics and industrial developments of robotics and automation, control systems, and cybernetics and gather experts from the field into one community group.
