Introduction

The 2016 International Symposium on Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics (SSRR 2016) will be held in EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland, October 23-27th, 2016. The venue for SSRR 2016 is the EPFL's Rolex Center. The program will integrate workshops, plenaries, robot demonstrations and social activities for attendees and guests.

The yearly recurrent IEEE International Symposium on Safety, Security, and Rescue Robotics seeks to continue its tradition of attracting cutting-edge papers in the theory and practice of robotics and automation for all types of safety, security, and rescue applications such as disaster response, mitigation and recovery; rapid and secure inspection of critical infrastructure; detection of chemical, biological and radiological risks, and operations in these dangerous sites. SSRR is also an entry point for researchers and technologists who want to learn more about safety, security and rescue robotics, through tutorials and keynotes.
