12. CALL FOR PAPERS: ROBOT AND HUMAN INTERACTIVE COMMUNICATION
Abstracts for the IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN) are due by 15 February 2006. Papers can focus on a diversity of Robotics technologies spanning academic, public, and governmental initiatives. For instance, will robots one day be used as assistants to human beings? What future technologies may allow engineers to design such complicated machines? Topics may range from innovative robot
designs to ethical issues in human-robot interaction research. The conference will take place next September in Hertfordshire, U.K. For more information, visit: <http://ro-man2006.feis.herts.ac.uk/>
