Welcome


Today, the AI large model is evolving towards the physically-aware world-based model, spawning embodied-AI robotics. Against this backdrop, the Sixth International Symposium on Intelligent Robotic Systems (ISoIRS 2026) brings together international researchers and engineers to share their R&D findings, address key challenges, and exchange practical experiences in intelligent robotics, adopting a systems approach. With an interdisciplinary perspective and industrial focus, ISoIRS 2026 will facilitate international dialogue on cutting-edge issues in the field.

 

Organized by the AI & Robotics Institute, Shenzhen Institute for Advanced Study, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), and supported by the Hong Kong Society of Robotics and Automation (HKSRA), the Symposium will be held in Shenzhen, China, from 27 to 29 March 2026. We warmly welcome you to Shenzhen and wish you a productive and rewarding experience at ISoIRS 2026.
