International Workshop on Robotics in Alpe-Adria-Danube (RAAD) is a series of annual scientific conferences. The RAAD conferences have been initiated by our Institute and the Slovenian Society for Robotics with the support of all national societies of Alpe-Adria region in 1992. RAAD is the main regional conference on robotics. It has become very soon evident that these meetings each year started a cooperation which was very important for all countries in this region and further. On our initiative, we invited also Croatia and Serbia in the consortium of participating countries. Thus practically all countries in the region are participating at RAAD. RAAD conferences connected researchers of different profiles, who did not know each other, and now they participate in opening new research topics that are of great importance in the development of robotics and robotic technologies. Slovenia has played an active role in organizing this conference and gained an important place in international community. The conference contributed to the integration of many Slovenian experts in the international arena and also in the establishment of long-term scientific and development cooperation.
