🗓️ Paper Submission Deadline: March 28, 2025 23:59 ET

📍 Workshop Event: May 19, 2025 @ Atlanta, Georgia, USA (ICRA 2025)

——————

Acoustic sensing is transforming robotic perception, interaction, and decision-making by enabling robots to “hear” and interpret their surroundings. As vision-based methods encounter challenges like poor lighting or occlusions, acoustic sensors such as microphones, sonar, and ultrasonic devices provide unique advantages for situational awareness and interaction.

This hybrid workshop will explore the latest advancements and challenges in acoustic sensing for robotics. We aim to foster discussion and collaboration among researchers and practitioners from diverse fields to push the boundaries of how sound can enable robots to navigate, manipulate, and interact in complex environments.

Invited Speakers

  • Oliver Brock (Technical University Berlin)

  • Shuran Song (Stanford University)

  • Shabnam Ghaffarzadegan (Bosch Center for AI)

  • Lerrel Pinto (New York University)

  • Naomi Fitter (Oregon State University)

  • Kristen Grauman (University of Texas at Austin)

  • Jui-Hsien Wang (Adobe Research)

  • Kazuhiro Nakadai (Institute of Science Tokyo)

Topics of Interest

🔹 Signal Processing with Acoustic Features
 🔹 Representation Learning using Acoustic Data
 🔹 Sensor Fusion: Acoustic + Visual/Tactile Inputs
 🔹 Real-Time Acoustic Sensing and Decision-making for Robotics
 🔹 Generative Models for Acoustic Datasets
 🔹 Applications in Manipulation, Navigation, and HRI
 🔹 Challenges in Acoustic Sensor Deployment/Integration
 🔹 Open-Source Tools for Acoustic Sensing

Submission Details

We will solicit contributions of up to 4 pages (excluding references) in IEEE format. Submissions can include:
 ✅ Late-breaking results
 ✅ Work under review
 ✅ Archived or ongoing work

Accepted contributions will be presented as posters (non-archival), and a selection will be featured as spotlight talks. Accepted posters and presentations will be posted on the workshop website upon author approval.
