The primary aim of ECMR is to establish a biannual European forum, internationally open, allowing researchers throughout Europe to become acquainted with the latest accomplishments and innovations in advanced mobile robotics and mobile human-robot systems.
ECMR features Online Proceedings.
ECMR 2011 will be held in the city of Örebro, Sweden. The first ECMR meeting was held in September 2003 in Radziejowice, Poland, followed by ECMRs in September 2005 in Ancona, Italy; September 2007 in Freiburg, Germany; and September 2009 in Mlini/Dubrovnik, Croatia. A priority of ECMR is to attract young researchers to present their work to an international audience. ECMR is organized in single track mode to favour discussions. ECMR 2011 will continue this policy and will provide panel sessions and original presentations about research in progress.
Most aspects of robotics research and machine intelligence are involved, including (but not limited to) the following topics:
The keynote speeches of ECMR 2011 will be given by Prof. Markus Vincze from the Vienna University of Technology, Austria and Prof. Per-Erik Forssén from Linköping University, Sweden.
Authors are invited to submit original contributions in English not exceeding 6 pages of the two column conference format. All papers will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, available upon arrival at the meeting. As in the past, it is planned to publish expanded and revised versions of selected papers in a special issue of an international journal. Further instructions and submission details will be available here.
Relatively mild wheather (temperatures between 11° and 18°) is predicted for the conference days though with a few hours of heavy rain on Wednesday morning. Check out www.windfinder.com/forecast/orebro, for example.
