This volume consists of a collection of papers arising from the 5th International Conference on Robotics - ROBOTICS 2010, which was held in Cluj-Napoca, from the 23rd to the 25th September, 2010, and was organized by the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Department of Mechanisms, Precision Mechanics and Mechatronics, and the Romanian Society of Robotics (SRR). The presentations covered the topics of: Robotics; Mechanical design of robot architectures, Sensors and actuators in robotics; Mobile robots navigation and obstacle avoidance; Mechatronics; Industrial automation, process control, manufacturing processes and automation; Micro- and nano-robots, parallel robots; Artificial intelligence, intelligent control, neuro-control, fuzzy control and their applications; Control system modeling, simulation techniques and methodologies; Biomedical and rehabilitation engineering, prosthetics and artificial organs; Tele-operation, tele-robotics, haptics, and tele-operated semi-autonomous systems; Robotics for automobile production; Virtual reality. The book thus constitutes a timely overview of this important subject.
