IROS 2018 is on the move! Call for Workshops and Call for Tutorials are open until March 11th. IROS 2018 seeks to provide an extensive program of workshops and tutorials to be held prior to and after the conference. Proposals that address topics related to the conference theme, “Towards a robotic society”, are welcome. We invite proposals for half-day or full-day workshops or tutorials. Do not wait for tomorrow, submit it now!
Call for Papers and Videos opened until March 1st, but you can attach a short video to your Paper until March 5th.
The IROS2018 Fan Challenge is the first challenge open, and is actually the official competition organised by IROS2018 itself. At this challenge, your robot has to manipulate the official IROS fan as good and fast as possible. If you dare to participate, you just need to request the official fan to fanchallenge@iros2018.org and submit the video of your robot. Winners will get their papers accepted in IROS2018.
The exhibition at IROS2018 is getting bigger and more appealing. Toyota is a Silver sponsor in our conference and KUKA decided to join as a Gold Sponsor. We are delighted with our very first Platinum Sponsor: PAL Robotics, which will bring a special surprise to IROS2018. All of them will also be part of the Exhibition, where two more companies joined recently: LuxAI, a company from Luxembourg working in humanoid social robots, and Science AAAS, one of the world's top academic journals.
See you in Madrid and keep an eye on the deadlines!
