Southern California AI & Robotics Symposium (SCAIR 2025)
The Southern California AI and Robotics Symposium 2025 (SCAIR25) brings together leading researchers, industry professionals, and students to explore the latest advancements in artificial intelligence and robotics. This two-day event features keynote speeches, technical sessions, workshops, and networking opportunities.
SCAIR 2025 is hosted by California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, CA, this year.
This year, in light of recent advancements and expanded applications in the field of artificial intelligence, our focus is on AI-driven robotics, with particular emphasis on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) applications and quantum robotics. We also welcome submissions from researchers presenting recent work in other areas of robotics and AI applications.
This event is FREE to all IEEE Student Members. For the non-IEEE Student Members, there's a $65.00 registration fee (earlybird is $50.00). If you want to attend this event and, at the same time, become an IEEE Student Member, you'll only need to pay for the IEEE student-membership: $32.00. Pizza will be served by the Cal Poly Pomona's IEEE Student branch during lunch break.
