"Advancing Technology for Humanity"
World's largest technical professional organization for electrical and electronics engineers; develops key robotics and automation standards.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit professional organization and the world's largest technical professional society, with more than 486,000 members across more than 160 countries. IEEE was formed in 1963 through the merger of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE, founded 1884) and the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE, founded 1912). The organization maintains a corporate office in New York City and an operations center at 445 Hoes Lane, Piscataway, New Jersey.
IEEE's mission is to foster technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. It achieves this through publishing, standards development, professional education, and technical conferences. IEEE produces over 30% of the world's technical literature in electrical, electronics, and computer engineering, publishing approximately 200 peer-reviewed journals and magazines and sponsoring over 1,800 annual conferences worldwide.
As an accredited standards development organization recognized by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), IEEE has developed and published more than 1,300 active standards, with more than 900 under development at any given time. These span wireless communications (IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi, 802.3 Ethernet), power systems, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and increasingly robotics and automation.
IEEE's Robotics and Automation Society (IEEE RAS) is the primary technical society within IEEE dedicated to advancing innovation, education, and research in robotics and automation. IEEE RAS operates the Standing Committee for Standards Activities (SCSA) to formally adopt best practices in robotics and automation as recognized standards, collaborating with industry, research communities, and other Standards Developing Organizations. IEEE RAS publishes leading journals including the IEEE Transactions on Robotics and co-organizes flagship conferences such as ICRA (International Conference on Robotics and Automation) and IROS (Intelligent Robots and Systems).
IEEE standards relevant to the robotics and automation ecosystem include safety, communication protocols, autonomous systems, and AI ethics guidelines, making IEEE a foundational institution for the global robotics industry.
