The IEEE 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Reality (ICIR 2024) is organized by the sponsors of the IEEE Digital Reality Technical Community (DRTC), which resulted from an IEEE Future Directions initiative. The DRTC is currently supported by the following IEEE Organizational Units: IEEE Consumer Technology Society, IEEE Council on RFID, IEEE Electronics Packaging Society, IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, IEEE Reliability Society,  IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, and IEEE Standards Association.

Intelligent Reality advances human adoption of integrated Augmented, Virtual, and Mixed Reality (AR/VR/MR), with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, Digital Twins, IoT, Robotics, Blockchain, Wearables, 5G, Internet of Everything, etc. It integrates AI-accelerated workflows, complex simulations, advanced visualizations, real-time analytics, and many other components to fuse the physical world with digital spaces, thus enabling humans and machines to co-exist and leverage each other’s strengths. The conference aims to identify the challenges and opportunities inherent to deploying intelligent tools and interactive disruptive technologies into immersive environments and digital transformation paths. It provides a forum for leading researchers, industry professionals, and standards experts to share their research findings and ideas.

The IEEE Digital Reality Initiative launched the first International Conference on Intelligent Reality in 2021 to help cultivate and advance this exciting new frontier of Intelligent Reality. After two previous successful events that were held exclusively online due to pandemic restrictions, this 3rd edition will be the first in a face-to-face format. It will offer the participants an opportunity to present their recent works and to take part in technical sessions, workshops, exhibition sessions, and thematic visits to our UNESCO World Heritage host city of Coimbra.

We look forward to your attendance and are very pleased to invite you to submit your latest research results, developments, and ideas to the IEEE 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Reality (ICIR2024), which will be held at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, from December 5th to 6th, 2024.
