- Final Submission Deadline: February 13, 2025 (AoE)   

================

The 8th International Workshop on Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality for Human-Robot Interaction (VAM-HRI) will bring together HRI, robotics, and mixed reality researchers to address challenges in mixed reality interactions between humans and robots in a hybrid workshop format, allowing for participation both in-person and remotely. VAM-HRI 2025 will follow on the success of VAM-HRI 2018-24 and advance the cause of this nascent research community.

We welcome contributions on topics including, but not limited to:

- AR for intent communication

- AR for behavior explanation

- Social/Socially Assistive applications of VAM-HRI

- AR/VR for robot testing and diagnostics

- AR/VR for robot learning

- VR for HRI human-subject experimentation

- Mixed-reality language grounding

- AR-augmented natural language generation

- AR-enabled robot control

- AR/VR for safety around robots

- Architectures for AR/VR-based HRI

- Computational modeling within AR/VR-based HRI

- AR/VR for expanding social interactions

- VAM-HRI research in the time of COVID-19

- Social and ethical implications of VAM for HRI

- Applications of VAM-HRI in construction, manufacturing, and healthcare

VAM-HRI accepts submissions of length from 2-8 pages presenting current or proposed work. Papers that are publicly available online without prior peer review (e.g., posted as preprints on ArXiv but not yet accepted by another venue) are eligible for submission. References do not count towards total page count. A submission link is provided on the workshop website: https://vam-hri.github.io/

All accepted papers will be accompanied by talks and/or poster presentations and will be archived on the workshop website.
