Conference Mode: Hybrid
About the Conference:
In the last two decades, a plethora of research and technology development has taken place in the domain of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) especially to mutate the dream of smart healthcare, automatic security management, smart agricultural/environmental activities into reality. The key technologies which took part in this initiative were artificial intelligence (AI), augmented/virtual/experience reality (AR/VR/XR), cloud computing, machine learning (ML), internet of things (IoT), multisensory systems, assistive technologies etc. The purpose is only to make smart ecosystems possible for societal causes.
The main objective of this conference is to provide a platform and bring together the academicians, researchers, students, industry professionals to disseminate original research, practical developments experience, showcase their startup ideas in the domain of human computer interaction and related sub-domains, with research paper/poster presentation. HCICC – 2026 is organized to address various issues to promote the creation of intelligent solutions in future. It is expected that researchers will bring new prospects for collaborations across disciplines and gain ideas facilitating novel concepts. The theme of this conference will definitely motivate the researchers to adopt the outcome for implementation.
Call for Papers:
HCICC – 2026 will provide an excellent international forum for sharing knowledge and experimental results in theory, methodology and applications of human computer interaction (HCI) and cognitive science. The aim of the conference is to provide a platform for researchers & practitioners from both academia as well as industry to meet and distribute knowledge of cutting-edge technologies. Authors are solicited to contribute to the conference by submitting their original, unpublished, research work, which is not currently under review by any other conference/journal as per the tracks given below (but not limited too).The Easychair service was used for managing the submissions and peer-reviewing process for this conference.
