Hello,
I hope this message finds you well.
We are excited to announce an upcoming workshop that aims to break new ground in the realm of affective computing. The workshop, titled “From Lab to Life: Realising the Potential of Affective Computing”, will encourage discussion from both academic and industry experts, which promises to be an enriching experience for both professionals and researchers alike.
Machine capabilities are on the rise. New advances in AI and Robotics have enabled the creation of ever more competent artificial systems that have the potential to contribute to various types of human activities. However, for this potential to result in a step-change in how humans and machines interact and work with each other, machines also need to be competent at understanding their human counterparts. How can task-competent machines become competent teammates, assistants, and companions for human users? How can technology make sense of human behaviour, responses, and experiences?
Affective Computing research has been spearheading the effort to answer these questions and resolve challenges of human-machine interaction. To take the unique insights and innovations developed in Affective Computing from lab prototypes to robust and reliable technology solutions for human users, there is a need for academic and industry researchers to come together. In this workshop, we create a forum for this conversation structured around three specific themes: (1) ethics and regulations, (2) industry perspectives, and (3) academic perspectives.
Here’s what you can expect from the workshop:
1. Expert insights: gain valuable insights from renowned experts in academia and industry who will share their experiences, perspectives, and ethical considerations on affective computing.
2. Interactive discussions: participate in discussions with experts by submitting a 2 page perspective piece and sharing your perspectives during a moderated panel where both you and speakers can discuss.
3. Networking opportunities: connect with fellow participants, industry professionals, and researchers to exchange ideas, forge new partnerships, and explore potential collaborations.
Whether you are a seasoned researcher, an industry professional, or someone in-between interested in the latest developments in affective computing, ethical concerns when navigating affective computing to industry, or curious as to how one can safely streamline affective computing products to consumers, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to expand your knowledge, broaden your network, and contribute to the advancement of this exciting field.
We invite you to submit your work and share your insights by submitting to our workshop by June 12th, 2024.

Thank you for taking the time to consider our invitation and we hope to see you at our workshop this September.
Kind Regards,
