Topics of Interest

We welcome original contributions in all areas of robotics. For a list of topics of interest, please check the CROS 2027 Keywords


Submission guidelines

Original articles, covering theoretical and/or application topics in Robotics, must be in English. Page limit is 6 pages, including figures, tables, acknowledgments, bibliografy, etc. and should be submitted in PDF format following the IEEE manuscript templates for conference proceedings, which are available (in both DOC and LaTeX formats) on the IEEE website:

Paper reviews are double-blind. Any author identification and any text that may reveal the authors' identities at the time of submission should be removed. The official IEEE conference templates can be found on Overleaf. Remember to remove the ordinal indicators (1st, 2nd, etc.) from the authors' names at:

HOW TO SUBMIT???

You have to have a CMT account before they try to submit their paper. Here is a link to create the account:

And here is a link for authors on how to submit a paper:

Paper registration and upload must be completed no later than the submission deadline (see dates below) via the CMT system at (be sure to select the general track - CROS2027):

In order to be included in the proceedings, the paper must be presented at the conference. At least one author must register in the full category by the camera-ready deadline.

All accepted papers will be submitted for publication in the IEEE Xplore digital library, which is indexed by Scopus and Web of Science. Additionally, extended version of outstanding papers will be invited for submission to the Journal of Intelligent and Robotic Systems as part of the South America Topical Collection.

CMT Acknowledgment

The Microsoft CMT service was used for managing the peer-reviewing process for this conference. This service was provided for free by Microsoft and they bore all expenses, including costs for Azure cloud services as well as for software development and support.

Guidelines Regarding the Use and Disclosure of AI Tools for Authors

Generative AI tools and technologies, such as ChatGPT, may not be listed as authors of a paper submitted to CROS 2027. The use of content generated by AI in an article (including but not limited to text, figures, images, and code) must be disclosed in the acknowledgments section. The AI system used must be identified, and specific sections of the article that use AI-generated content should be specified and accompanied by a brief explanation regarding the manner in which the AI system was used to generate the content. The use of AI systems for editing and grammar enhancement is common practice and, as such, is generally outside the intent of the above policy.

Guidelines Regarding the Use and Disclosure of AI Tools for Reviewers

Information or content contained in or about a manuscript under review shall not be processed through an AI system. Doing so is considered a breach of confidentiality and as such is not permitted.

Registration

At least one author must register in the professional (Full) category by the camera-ready deadline.

FAQ'S

General Questions

  • Which topic areas are covered by the conference?

    We invite submissions in all fields where cutting-edge technologies have been developed and applied to model, design, build, and test complex engineering solutions for autonomous robotic systems, including but not limited to the topics in CROS 2027 Keywords.

  • Is it allowed to submit a paper that previously was published at a workshop or on a preprint server (e.g. arxiv)?
    IEEE supports the evolutionary publication paradigm of workshop papers being improved to conference papers, which are then improved to journal papers. Therefore, papers, which previously have been published at a workshop without formal/peer reviewed proceedings, can be submitted to CROS. Similarly, papers, which have been uploaded on a preprint server (e.g. arxiv) and are not submitted simultaneously to any other conference or journal, can be submitted to CROS.

    However, if your workshop paper has a DOI, this would be considered as an archival publication equivalent to a conference paper. Such papers cannot be submitted.
