<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction is a premier, highly-selective venue presenting the latest advances in Human-Robot Interaction. The 18th Annual HRI conference theme is “HRI for all.” We encourage
the community to consider ways to both make the field a more inclusive place for those who may not feel included, as well as to encourage inclusion within our research methods and practices. The conference seeks contributions from a broad set of perspectives,
including technical, design, behavioural, theoretical and methodological, that advance fundamental and applied research in human-robot interaction. Full papers will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">We aim to have a hybrid conference, with opportunities to participate both in person and online. We will post additional details as the conference date nears.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="color:#333333;background:white;mso-highlight:white">Full papers are variable length papers that should reflect the extent of the contribution but maximum length is eight pages including figures, but excluding references.
Submissions longer than eight pages of content excluding references will be desk rejected and not reviewed. Accepted full papers will be published in the conference proceedings and presented in an oral session. The HRI conference is highly selective with a
rigorous, two-stage review model that includes an expert program committee meeting where papers are extensively discussed. As such, all submissions are expected to be mature, polished, and detailed accounts of cutting-edge research described and presented
in camera-ready style. In cases of equally qualified papers, positive consideration will be given to submissions that address this year’s theme, “HRI for all.”</span><span lang="EN" style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
