CfP CRAFT Workshop at ICSR 2026, London, UK

[Doreen Jirak]

Dear all,

We are organizing a workshop "Creative Robotics & AI for Fair Technologies" (CRAFT)  at this years' International Conference for Social Robots + Art (ICSR+Art 2026) in London, UK.

Topics include robotic expressiveness, movement-based interaction, real-time co-creation, human factors (e.g., trust, attention, memory), participatory design, and governance challenges such as bias, data rights, and shared authorship. Through invited talks and discussion, we aim to identify key challenges and future directions for more inclusive and responsible creative robotics and embodied AI. Through talks, breakout sessions, and discussions with three invited experts, the workshop will identify major research challenges and future directions in creative robotics and embodied AI. We explicitly invite people from research and industry. Accepted paper will be presented at the workshop July, 3rd, 2026 in London, UK.

More information on topics and submission:  CRAFT Workshop
