Today I learned about the findings of VOICEResearch project. Portraying the views on online safety of almost 500 children and over 6,000 caregivers in 15 countries. "The Internet was never designed for children" Catharina Rinzema. One of my takeaways is that children do want to be protected online, but they feel they cannot go to their caregivers when in trouble, because they think that their online behaviours will not be understood. These are some of children's proposals to feel safer online: 1. Get training on good use and bad use of technologies. 2. Businesses and governments should work together and put children's safety first. 3. Parental education on technologies, so children and parents can gave an open communication. (Most parents think their children will go to them in case they find themselves in trouble online, but children answered the opposite during this study). 4. Context and language are key to put the message across: schools, parents, children, platform and law enforcement must work together to make sure the safety measures will be understood and used by children and parents. 5. Create a support system for children that they can trust.

Mary Jo McGuire, NACo President; #Commissioner, Ramsey County, Minn., setting the tone for a productive event. The day was filled with engaging steering committee sessions, each providing valuable perspectives and discussions such as Justice and Public #Safety #Policy Steering Committee, where we discussed crucial topics such as emergency preparedness and cooperation with FEMA The day concluded with the grand opening of the exhibition hall showcasing innovative solutions and opportunities for collaboration with counties on local and federal level.

I decided to present the evolution of the real-time flow-based dynamic scene understanding over the 40 years of robotics research in my talk. It is fun to find how the knowledge about the perception-action coupling improves over time making things more robust and more efficient. Speakers at ICRA@40 (23-26 September, 2024) https://lnkd.in/ewyMWRyH? The conference started when I was deciding my future path. #icra #robotics #perception

It was really interesting to hear this pan-sector discussion. We all have things in common - putting people first. Learning includes Communication is Key.
