RA-L Paper with ICRA Presentation Option
The Journal IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters (RA-L) also provides a possibility to submit and publish in the Journal, but present at ICRA.

Paper Presentation

All papers will be presented in the interactive mode in parallel sessions, similar to ICRA 2015 in Seattle, WA. The interactive presentation will have a brief spotlight oral presentation portion preceding the interactive portion of the session, which will be held in the same session room.
Tutorials and Workshops

Proposals for half‐day or full-day workshops and tutorials are invited. Workshops and tutorials will be held on May 29 and June 2, before and after the main contributed sessions. Workshops provide an informal forum for participants in an active research area. Tutorials target more established research areas and provide insights to the state of the art, presented by recognized researchers in the field.
