Paper Submission guidelines: 

We welcome submissions regarding any robotics application where tactile sensing modalities are used. As we aim to encourage meaningful discussion in the tactile perception and learning domain, work that is unpublished, recently published or under review can be accepted for presentation depending on the novelty, significance and contributions of the work to the workshop theme. 
For further information please visit  www.ics.ei.tum.de/robotac18/ <http://www.ics.ei.tum.de/robotac18/>
