We cordially invite you to submit your work to the 11th European Conference on Mobile Robots (ECMR 2023), which will bring together researchers working on all aspects of mobile robotics including scientific foundations, applications, and analysis of mobile robotic systems.
ECMR welcomes original research papers describing fundamental developments in the field of mobile robotics, with particular emphasis on autonomous systems. The conference will be single-track, and the final program will be the result of a thorough peer review process. Submissions will be evaluated in terms of their novelty, technical quality, significance, potential impact, and clarity.
The program will include invited talks as well as oral and poster presentations of accepted papers. The three-day main conference will be preceded by a workshop and tutorials day.
An important goal of ECMR is to extend the state-of-the-art in the context of autonomous mobile systems featuring interdisciplinary approaches covering computer science, control systems, electrical engineering, mathematics, mechanical engineering, and other fields.

ECMR 2023will be hosted by the Institute of Systems and Robotics - University of Coimbra, in Coimbra, Portugal

Paper and Video Format:
All accepted papers wether selected as oral, or poster presentations, will be included in IEEE Xplore. Submissions must be formatted in A4, two-column IEEE style. Papers can have six pages, including references. Up to two extra pages are allowed for a charge of 100 EUR/page.
• Format guidelines
• LaTex template
• MS Word template

A 1-minute video (up to 10 MB) can be added to supplement your paper. Videos are not mandatory. Rather it’s an opportunity to augment one’s paper to showcase results visibly. MPG, MPEG, or MP4 video formats can be used.
