IEEE has been monitoring the developing Coronavirus, COVID-2019.

The safety and well-being of all conference participants is our priority. After studying and evaluating the announcements, guidance, and news released by relevant national departments, we are sorry to announce that RoboSoft 2020, scheduled to be held April 6-9 in New Haven, CT, USA will be postponed to a later date (likely August or September).

We will provide more information on the new dates shortly. We thank you for your understanding.

Your paid registration will carry over to the new conference dates. Once the new dates are announced, we will be issuing registration refunds to those who registered for the original conference but can no longer attend due to the postponement.

Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
