Call for Papers
2021 the 4th IEEE International Conference on Unmanned Systems (ICUS 2021), co-sponsored by IEEE and Chinese institute of Command and Control, will be held from Oct. 15 to Oct. 17, 2021, in Beijing, China.
The conference proceedings will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library for inclusion and being indexed by EI. And so far, all three previous conference proceedings have been included in IEEE Xplore Digital Library and indexed by EI.
Scope
Over the years, unmanned systems, represented by unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned ground vehicles, unmanned surface ships, unmanned subsurface systems and robots, are developing rapidly, and have become a new growth pole and key support area of the global economy. Especially, unmanned systems are developing rapidly enabled by artificial intelligence.
This trend will be reflected in ICUS 2021 in various topics of interest under the theme “Unmanned Systems Innovation and Development in the Intelligence Age”. This conference will serve as a forum for scientists, engineers and practitioners to discuss related issues on unmanned systems.
