WORKSHOPS
International Workshop on Robot Vision
VENUE
The conference will be held in Barceló Hotel Sants. The Barceló
Hotel Sants is a deluxe hotel located in the heart of Barcelona.
It stays about 15 minutes from the airport, 4 minutes to Plaza de
Catalunya and 500 meters to the Fira de Barcelona. Considering the
hotel is exactly above the train station, it allows traveling to
anyplace. Most important is the fact that all the noise from the
train station is undetected because the hotel is soundproofed. The
Barcelo Hotel Sants also offers on site dining and is convenient
to many shopping and entertainment venues.
PROCEEDINGS AND BOOK PUBLICATION
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings,
under an ISBN reference, in paper and in CD-ROM support. A book
including a selection of the best conference papers will be edited
and published by Springer.
