CLAWAR 2023 is the 26th issue of the International Conference Series on Climbing and Walking Robots and the Support Technologies for Mobile Machines. The conference will be organized in collaboration with the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florianópolis, Brazil, during 02 – 04 October 2023. The technical programme of CLAWAR 2023 will feature plenary, regular and special/invited sessions.
Original contributions are invited in the general area of mobile robotics, covering climbing, walking, flying robots with assistance and service provided to humans and machines. The conference will cover analysis (modelling and simulation) techniques, design approaches, and practical applications and realisations of robotic systems. Support technologies for realisation of such systems, associated economic, ethical and social considerations are integral part of the conference theme. A non-exhaustive list of topics and activities can be found below.
Submission Guidelines
The technical program of the conference will feature Regular Papers and Special Session Papers. Please submit Full Draft Papers in PDF format, directly through the link provided in the conference website, by the indicated deadline for consideration for inclusion in the relevant category (special/regular paper).
