The Latin American Robotics Symposium (LARS) and the Latin American Robotics Competition (LARC) constitute the flagship IEEE Robotics and Automation Society event in Latin America, bringing together researchers, students, industry professionals, educators, and technology leaders from across the region to foster collaboration and advance the state of the art in robotics and automation. The conference serves as a premier forum for presenting original research, exchanging technical knowledge, and discussing emerging trends in robotics, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, computer vision, control systems, human-robot interaction, machine learning for robotics, robot perception, navigation, manipulation, multi-robot systems, and other related areas. Accepted papers are presented through technical sessions, promoting scientific discussion and collaboration among participants from academia, industry, and research institutions. In addition to the scientific program, the event features keynote speeches delivered by internationally recognized experts, tutorials, workshops, panel discussions, and networking activities that encourage collaboration between universities, research centers, startups, and industrial partners. These activities provide attendees with opportunities to learn about cutting-edge technologies, establish new collaborations, and strengthen the robotics ecosystem throughout Latin America. A distinctive component of the event is the Latin American Robotics Competition (LARC), which complements the symposium by providing students with hands-on experience through a series of robotics challenges that promote innovation, teamwork, engineering design, and practical problem-solving. The competition attracts undergraduate and graduate teams from multiple countries and serves as an important platform for talent development and knowledge exchange.

WIE Engineering Experience: Connecting Engineering Fields is an integration event for students from different engineering programs at Universidad del Norte. It is designed as a dynamic space to share experiences, learn about the perspectives of other engineering fields, and strengthen connections among female students. The activity also features the participation of female professors from different areas of engineering, who accompany the activities and share their experiences and perspectives on their professional journeys in the field. The event is organized through different game and challenge stations related to engineering, combining entertainment, knowledge, and teamwork. One of the activities is ArcadeFem, a series of games inspired by women who have made history in engineering, where participants can learn about their contributions while completing different challenges. Among the games is “Guess Who? – WIE Version,” an adaptation of the well-known board game in which participants try to identify prominent women from different areas of engineering through questions about their work and contributions. A Twister activity is also included, providing a fun way to learn about women engineers while encouraging recreation and interaction. Overall, the event includes everyday games adapted to the context of engineering, such as trivia, knowledge challenges, speed-based activities, and challenges in which participants solve situations or answer questions creatively. These games also promote interaction, with activities designed so that students from different engineering programs can participate, get to know one another, and share experiences from their respective fields. The event also serves as a space to introduce WIE Uninorte, its objectives, activities, and opportunities for participation, encouraging new students to become involved and strengthening the chapter's presence within the university community.
