7th European Conference on Mobile Robots

Dear ECMR Participants,

it is a pleasure to welcome you to the Seventh European Conference on Mobile Robots (ECMR'15) in the cathedral city of Lincoln. This year we received 97 submissions, of which 23 papers were selected for oral presentation and 36 papers were selected for poster presentation. ECMR’15 will also host keynote talks by Ingmar Posner from the University of Oxford, Roland Siegwart from ETH Zürich and Maja Pantic from Imperial College London.

The conference is prepared in a three-day single track format with 3 keynote talks, 6 oral sessions and 2 poster sessions. There will also be 2 poster spotlight sessions preceding the poster sessions, with short presentations of each poster by one of the authors. The technical programme is accompanied by the social programme, including the welcome reception, conference dinner and the cultural tour and conference farewell at Lincoln Castle.

We would like to express our thanks to all the members of the Programme Committee and the Additional Reviewers for the constructive reviews provided. We also take the opportunity to thank the Local Organizing Committee and the Local Volunteers for all of their efforts in helping to organise an excellent conference programme. Last, but not least, thanks to our Technical Sponsors, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society.

Welcome to Lincoln. We wish you an exciting ECMR'15!
