Welcome

Following the success of the first edition that took place in 2015, the second edition of the Special Session on Autonomous Driving and Driver Assistance Systems, which is part of the third Iberian Robotics Conference - ROBOT2017, covers all issues related specifically to autonomous driving of robotic vehicles, namely those moving in roads, streets and similar pathways, as well as techniques to detect and recognize other agents and features of the environment to assist human drivers.
The expected topics include, but are not limited to the following:

  • Vision, lidar and radar perception
  • Sensor calibration
  • Multimodal sensor fusion
  • Perception in challenging conditions
  • Scene understanding
  • Software architectures for autonomous vehicles
  • Special sensors for autonomous navigation
  • Driver-vehicle interaction and assisted driving
  • Navigation, motion planning and manoeuvring
  • Vehicle dynamics and control
  • Outdoors SLAM
  • V2V and V2I communications

Paper submission

The paper sumission for the special session follows the same rules as the general conference, that is, papers must follow the Springer AISC template. Twelve pages in the Springer AISC format are allowed for each paper, including all figures, tables and references.

Journal Publication

Extended versions of selected papers will be publishable in a special issue of the Robotics and Autonomous Systems Journal, from Elsevier.
