HRFEST 2026 - Humanoid Robotics & AI Congress (Peru)
📅 Thursday, 5 November 2026 → Saturday, 7 November 2026 in 150 days
HRFEST 2026 is an IEEE-sponsored congress on humanoid and advanced robotics hosted by the Universidad Nacional del Callao in Peru. Flagged around humanoid robotics, it also welcomes pure AI, applied technologies and engineering-management work, with accepted papers submitted to IEEE Xplore.
HRFEST 2026, the International Conference on Humanoid Robotics, Innovation and Leadership, runs 5-7 November 2026 at the Universidad Nacional del Callao in Peru. It is an official IEEE-sponsored conference (technically co-sponsored by IEEE Region 9), with accepted and presented papers submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore.
Humanoid and advanced robotics is the flagship theme, with tracks on legged locomotion, control and kinematics, mechatronics and soft robotics, cobots and swarm robotics. Alongside this it runs a substantial AI and data science track (machine and deep learning, generative AI and LLMs, computer vision, explainable AI). Robotics is firmly in scope for this directory, and AI is a core pillar.
The congress emphasises access for Latin American researchers: a two-round review for visa and funding timing, a hybrid virtual option, and competitive indexed-publication rates. It is institutionally backed by Peru's ProCiencia programme.
