description: This proceedings contains the papers presented at the IFAC Conference, on Telematics Application in Automation and Robotics, in Weingarten, Germany, on 24-26 July 2001.This, the inaugural IFAC conference on telematics applications, was organised in response to the huge and growing economic potential of interdisciplinary technologies arising from telecommunications and informatics research. The conference attracted a large number of high quality submissions, and the resultant proceedings provides an important and timely resource for anyone with an interest in this burgeoning research area.The proceedings surveys the state of the art in telematics, with a particular emphasis on applications in automation and robotics. The range of application areas covered, from aerospace to transportation to medicine to education, is truly impressive. Altogether over 90 papers are presented, all demonstrating the dramatic progress in modern telecommunication and information processing technologies that characterize the advances of recent years.
