Location:Granada, Spain
About the Event
Mark your calendars, or perhaps just a single box on your calendar. The International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) is slated to take place in Granada, Spain, on April 16, 2026. Organized by an entity known as Robotics Forum, this event aims to gather academics, researchers, and scientists to hash out the latest developments in robotics and intelligent systems.
Prospective attendees should note that this one-day event in Granada shares its popular “IROS” acronym with the larger, multi-day IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, which has been a cornerstone of the robotics research community for decades. The flagship IEEE-sponsored IROS 2026 is scheduled for September 27 to October 1, 2026, in Pittsburgh, PA, a detail worth noting for anyone planning their conference circuit.
The Granada event, per the organizer, intends to create an international forum to discuss results and proposals on the “soundest issues related to Intelligent Robots and Systems.” It’s one of several similarly named one-day events scheduled by the same organizer across Europe in 2026, including sessions in Amsterdam, Lisbon, and Helsinki.
Key Themes
While a detailed program has yet to materialize, the call for papers suggests a broad scope covering the landscape of intelligent robotics. Key areas of focus typically include:
- Robotics and Automation
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Robotics
- Human-Robot Interaction
- Autonomous Systems
- Sensing and Perception
- Industrial and Medical Robotics
Featured Speakers
Speaker and committee information for the Granada event has not been announced. Details are expected to be released closer to the conference date.
Schedule
The conference is scheduled as a single-day event on April 16, 2026. A detailed schedule of technical sessions, presentations, and keynotes is currently unavailable. The paper submission deadline is listed as March 25, 2026.
Registration
Those interested in attending can register as a “Listener” or submit a paper for consideration via the conference website. Pricing and package details are available directly on the registration portal.
