The ISR is a conference on industrial and service robotics sponsored by the International Federation of Robotics. The symposium unites experts from the scientific, technical and industrial field who discuss ideas in robotics. Researchers and engineers from around the globe present their pioneering works.

Each symposium is organized by a national industry robot association either in America, Europe, or Asia and takes place in conjunction with an international robot exhibition. The first ISR was held in Chicago, USA, in 1970.
