ROMANSY symposium is the first established conference that emphasizes the theory and research of robotics, rather than the industrial aspect. Thanks to the active participation of researchers from different countries, the symposium is still held bi-annually and playing a vital role in the development of the theory and practice of robotics, as well as of mechanical sciences.

Papers are solicited on topics related to robotics within aspects of theory, design, practice and industrial applications, including but not limited to:
- novel robot design and robot modules/components;
- personal, service, medical, space and rescue robots;
- humanoid robots, bio-robotics, multi-robot, embodied multi-agent systems;
- challenges in control, modeling, kinematical and dynamical analysis of robotic systems;
- innovations in sensor systems for robots and perception;
- biomechanical problems and education in robotics.

The symposium is under the patronage of IFToMM, the International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science. ROMANSY is one of the activities of IFToMM Technical Committee for Robotics and Mechatronics.
