CR-HRI 2013 - 4th International Workshop on Collaborative Robots and Human Robot Interaction (CR-HRI 2013)

This workshop on collaborative robots and human-robot interactions - to be held as part of the 2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems - will focus on the areas of human-robot interaction and human-robot collaborative technologies. We invite original contributions from researchers in academia, research laboratories, and the computer industry on these emerging and important areas of information technology. Our goals are to provide a dedicated refereed workshop that fosters closer interaction among researchers from multiple relevant disciplines, including robotics, human-robot interaction, design, cognitive science, psychology, computer science, anthropology, human-computer interaction, as well as user communities, and to provide a forum in which they can exchange their findings and ideas.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
Collaborative Robots and Unmanned Vehicles (CR & UV)
Multi-Robot Systems
Collaborative Robots Behavior
Collaborative Control of Robot Motion
Control of a Team of Robots in a Mission
