Full-Shift Robot Co-Workers

Active Perception and Interaction for Human Environments

A full-day workshop on long-horizon robot autonomy, active perception, human-robot interaction, and real-world deployment in human environments.

Why this workshop

The workshop focuses on active perception, interaction, planning, recovery, and evaluation for robots operating around people in real workplace environments.

We welcome work that connects technical methods with deployment evidence, including field reports, negative results, and lessons from real systems.

Program Overview

The workshop will feature invited keynote talks, contributed paper presentations, poster sessions, an industry panel, and a Junior Voice spotlight for early-career researchers.

A detailed schedule will be posted as the IROS 2026 workshop program is finalized.
