Brazilian Symposium on Robotics

SBR2024

Centro de Convenções Goiânia, GO, Brazil

November 13 to 15, 2024

The Conference

The SBR (Brazilian Robotics Symposium) aim at promoting a comprehensive scientific meeting in the area of Intelligent Robotics, bringing together researchers, undergraduate and graduate students of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, and related fields.

The SBR and its associated scientific events are the primary scientific/academic meetings of a larger event that brings relevant developments in robotics, named ROBÓTICA 2024. This also comprises the CBR (Brazilian Robotics Competition), OBR (Brazilian Robotics Olympiad), MNR (National Robotics Fair), besides the SBR, WRE (Workshop on Robotics in Education) and WTDR / CTDR (Workshop on MSc Dissertation and PhD Thesis in Robotics and Best MSc Dissertation and PhD Thesis Contest in Robotics ).

The event will include technical sessions of an oral presentation of full papers and technical lectures of recognized importance in the area. SBR will take place in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil from November 13 to 15, 2024 at Centro de Convenções Goiânia, Rua 4, 1400 – Setor Central, Goiânia – GO, Brasil. 74025-020


Call for papers

Papers must be written in English and must not exceed six (6) pages in standard IEEE format, including title, abstract, tables, figures, and references. Papers should present new solid results in theoretical, empirical, and applied research related to the conference topics. This year the reviewing process will be DOUBLE BLINDED, so authors must hide their names, contact information, acknowledgments, and any other reference in the text to where their research takes place.

The best selected papers will be invited for submission of an extended version in the Journal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems - JINT
