*Call for Papers*

The 17th International Conference on Advanced Robotics, ICAR 2015 is organized by Middle East Technical University in collaboration with Kadir Has University. The conference will take place in Kadir Has University campus in Istanbul, Turkey, on July 27-31, 2015.

Keeping up with the same spirit of innovation, ICAR wants to bring high quality papers, workshops and tutorials to the geographical areas where the larger robotics conferences have not been organized yet. After the successful conference last year in Montevideo, Uruguay (www.icar2013.org), next year, the 17th ICAR will be held in Istanbul, Turkey where “the east meets the west”. The conference is organized by Middle East Technical University (METU) in collaboration with Kadir Has University. The venue is Kadir Has Campus situated on the historic peninsula along Halic bay (www.icar2015.org).

ICAR 2015 will be technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. The technical program of ICAR 2015 will consist of plenary talks, workshops and oral presentations. Submitted papers should describe original work in the form of theoretical modelling, design, experimental validation, or case studies from all areas of robotics, focusing on emerging paradigms and application areas including but not limited to:

Robotics Vision Adversarial Planning
Cognitive Robotics Robot Operating Systems
Robotics Architectures Simulation and Visualization
