CFP: ARSO 2023 in Berlin, Germany

We are pleased to announce the 19th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Its Social Impacts (ARSO 2023), which will take place in Berlin, Germany on 5 – 7 June 2023, in conjunction with ICRA 2023. Contributions for papers and organized sessions are now open (accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings and on IEEE Xplore).

Please note that the organized session proposal deadline has been extended to December 14th.

Summary

Advanced robots are expected to enter in promising applications in our future society and bring substantial impacts. The increasing implementation of AI-based components even broadens their fields of application. To ensure that these impacts are positively reflected, we must now extend views not only on technical aspects but also on social challenges that we might face, which relate to issues such as safety, regulation, ethics, human factors, and philosophy.
