December 11-14, 2012, Guangzhou, China
2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO 2012) will be held December 11-14, 2012, in Guangzhou, China. Known as Canton and Flower City with its pleasant and evergreen weather throughout the year, Guangzhou is located some 120 km from Hong Kong. Being the third largest Chinese city with a population of 13 million and host of 2010 Asian Games, Guangzhou plays a pivotal role in the rapid social and economic development of southern China and enjoys a modern transportation infrastructure. The ninth in the ROBIO conference series, we anticipate the 2012 ROBIO conference to be another tremendous opportunity for fruitful intellectual and social interactions among colleagues and friends in various facets of robotics and biomimetics research.
ROBIO 2012 Technical Program will be anchored by
plenaries from four internationally renowned robotics/biomimetics researchers:
Koh Hosoda, Vijay Kumar, Zexiang Li, and
Kevin Warwick. ROBIO 2012 will honor its top papers through the best paper awards in four categories: Best Student Paper, Best Paper in Robotics, Best Paper in Biomimetics, and Best Conference Paper. The best papers of ROBIO 2012 will also be invited to a special issue of the journal of
Advanced Robotics. Additional papers will be invited to the journal of
IJAC. All papers accepted by ROBIO 2012 will appear in
IEEE Xplore and will be submitted to
EI for indexing.
Technical Program is now available online. Please check for the schedule of your presentation.
