IROS 2027 — IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems

IROS 2027, the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, runs 26 September – 1 October 2027 at the Fortezza da Basso in Florence, Italy. Co-sponsored by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society and the Robotics Society of Japan, IROS is one of the two flagship robotics research conferences alongside ICRA, and the 2027 edition emphasises human-centric robotics development, artificial intelligence integration, and sustainable robotics for manufacturing and climate applications. The paper submission deadline is 1 March 2027. Scale is substantial and growing: IROS 2025 accepted 1,991 of 4,306 submitted papers, a 46.2% acceptance rate. Editions pair the peer-reviewed technical programme with workshops and tutorials on the bracketing days, plenary talks and a robotics exhibition.

• ✓Heads of automation and operations technology
• ✓Autonomous systems and perception leads
• ✓Manufacturing technology leaders
• ✓AI/ML research scientists

Embodied AI is the part of the field that turns capital expenditure into throughput — warehouse automation, mobile manipulation, inspection drones, surgical robotics and humanoid platforms. IROS is where the perception, planning and manipulation methods behind those systems are published, and a Florence edition puts European industrial-robotics manufacturers, research institutes and systems integrators within reach of a single trip. For a CTO or VP of operations technology deciding whether a robotics deployment is two years out or five, the workshop and exhibition tracks give a far more honest read than any vendor demonstration.

• ✓Peer-reviewed technical programme with a 1 March 2027 paper submission deadline
• ✓Workshops and tutorials on the days bracketing the main conference
• ✓Plenary and keynote talks
• ✓Robotics exhibition and live industry demonstrations
• ✓Human-centric robotics thematic focus
• ✓AI integration and sustainable-robotics programme emphasis

• ★One of the two flagship robotics research conferences worldwide, co-sponsored by IEEE RAS and the Robotics Society of Japan.
• ★Held in the Fortezza da Basso, Florence's main convention complex, placing it inside Italy's industrial-robotics and mechatronics corridor.
• ★Rigorously peer-reviewed at scale — IROS 2025 accepted 1,991 of 4,306 submissions, a 46.2% acceptance rate.
• ★The 2027 edition foregrounds human-centric robotics, AI integration and sustainable robotics for manufacturing and climate applications.
