This is Part 2 of the three-part review of RoboCon 2026 in Helsinki.

While waiting for my return flight at the airport, laptop on my knees and still filled with impressions from RoboCon 2026, I began sorting through my notes.
The first draft of this article was written between gate announcements and boarding calls 😉

So here is my very personal three-part review of RoboCon – shaped by my impressions, my focus areas and the topics that had a particular impact on me.
Nevertheless, I naturally wanted to convey as much of the “RoboCon feeling” as possible to those who had stayed at home.

WROBOCON is the ‘little sister’ of the well-known annual Robocon in Helsinki, but it certainly has nothing to hide.
On the contrary: with exciting presentations, workshops and an active community, NiceProject has established a format that is entertaining, educational and human at the same time.

My personal conference review.

What happens when you combine the precision of the browser library with the power of AI?

That’s exactly what I tried out - and built a plugin that combines two worlds: the established Robot Framework BrowserLibrary and Alumnium.ai.

Very exciting! A test case, controlled only by instructions to an LLM?
I had to try it out - and it worked right away…

RoboCon 2025 is behind me - four days full of exciting presentations, inspiring talks and new ideas.

Now, back home, I’m sorting through my impressions - and there are plenty of them!

This conference is something special for me every year: nowhere else do I experience a community that shares so openly, discusses together and drives new ideas forward.

In this article, I’d like to share my personal highlights with you - the talks that had a particular impact on me and the topics that I will definitely be following up on.

The RoboCon week traditionally starts with the “Unconference Day ” - a day on which the Robot Framework community freely organizes itself and discusses the topics that move it most without a fixed program.

My summary of this day…

The sunny spring weather actually invited us to spend the day outdoors, but Animesh and I persevered: a day of recording 🎙️ 🎥 in the Checkmk studio in the heart of Munich.

Today the time has come: Checkmk 2.3 was released and my “baby” Robotmk is now an integral part of this great monitoring system under the name “Synthetic Monitoring”.
