Call for participation

Sensing, robotics, vision, minds and machines are all key elements of the conference and call upon a broad interdisciplinary community of scholars to discuss, share, and exchange ideas in order to lead the next breakthrough in any of these fields. We invite you to join us for this exciting event. Participation is free and open to the public but  we do ask you to register in order to facilitate the logistics of the event.

The “Sensing: from Minds to Machines” conference  will be held from Sunday, May 29 through June 1, 2016.  All academic lectures and poster sessions will be held in the W.A. Minkoff Senate Hall and Court.

Directions and transportation: If you plan on arriving by car and do not have access to the BGU campus, please make sure to fill in the necessary information in the registration form. The BGU campus is easily accessible by train. We have  a train station virtually on campus, a five-minute stroll from the venue. (For schedule see the Israeli Railways web site.) If you do arrive by train, please get off at the “Be’er Sheva North/University” station (NOT Be’er Sheva Merkaz) and simply walk over the bridge to the university. Please consult our region and campus maps (available in English or Hebrew). In BGU all buildings bear numbers and the W.A. Minkoff  Senate Hall is building 71A.
