CALL FOR PAPERS

SCOPE

This symposium will focus on various aspects of international research, applications and trends of robotic Innovations for the benefit of humanity, advanced human-robot systems and applied technologies, e.g. in the fields of robotics, telerobotics, simulator platforms and environment and mobile work machines as well as virtual reality/augmented reality and 3D modeling and simulation. The symposium will consist of keynote presentations on the state-of-the-art technology, workshops and topical panels. All papers will have peer review and will be published with IMEKO and IEEE Guidelines.

PARTICIPANTSAs in previous ISMCR Conferences, ISMCR 2019 is intended to be a forum for the exchange of recent research results and ideas in robotic technologies and applications; this time with specific reference to service to humanity. It should be of interest to a wide range of participants from government agencies, relevant international institutions, universities, research organizations, robotics and automated vehicle companies, as well as media and the general public. The conference should serve as an opportunity for networking and fruitful exchange with fellow participants on topics of mutual interest.

PAPER SUBMISSION

Prospective participants are invited to submit electronically abstracts and then full papers of theirwork, following the instructions available on the web page. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, which will be available at the time of the
conference. Presented papers will be recommended for publication in IEEE Xplore, Scopus and Web of Science (THOMSON REUTERS Conference Proceedings Citation Index). As the previous ISMCRs, after the conference, the extended and enhanced versions of the selected papers will be considered for publication in the IMEKO
