Every year the International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS) presents the Big-on-Small Award. This Award is intended to recognize excellent performance on a MARSS-related topic and to promote upcoming talents in these research communities. The target group includes young professionals with excellent performance and international visibility.

Members of MARSS Steering Committee and MARSS Academic Advisory Board nominate the award candidates and make a final decision by anonymous voting.
