Bragança – Portugal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear colleague,
We are pleased to inform you that ICARSC’2016 – IEEE International Conference on Autonomous Robot Systems and Competitions will be held in Bragança, Portugal, on May 4-6, 2016.
The conference is organized within ROBOTICA 2016 - 16th Portuguese Robotics Open, a RoboCup-sponsored local event, and it is promoted by the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança and the Portuguese Robotics Society.

Conference Scope
----------------
ICARSC gathers participants from academia and industry working in the field of autonomous robotics and related areas. The conference started as the meeting point of the Portuguese community working on Mobile Robotics Competitions and soon grew to an open International event to share related research work.
ICARSC’2016 is an IEEE co-sponsored event (the conference has the co-sponsorship of IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, IEEE Portugal Section and IEEE Portugal Section Robotics and Automation Chapter) and its proceedings will be indexed in IEEExplore and Scopus and submitted for indexing to Inspec, EI’s Engineering Information Index, Compendex®, and ISI Thomson’s Scientific and Technical Proceedings®, ISTP®/ISI Proceedings, and Current Contents on Diskette®.
Extended versions of selected best papers will be invited for publication at a special issue of the “Journal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems”, and journals “Industrial Robot: An International Journal” and “Sensor Review”.

-----------------
Invited Speaker
-----------------
The conference will feature a plenary talk by Dr. Rainer Bischoff, Head of KUKA's Corporate Research department responsible for research and technology development.
