Attending the workshops requires registration for the EuroHaptics conference.

Workshops offer an informal environment for attendees with common interests and diverse perspectives to engage in rich discussions around works in progress or new areas of research and practice. EuroHaptics 2012 invites workshop proposals addressing basic research, applied research, new methodologies, emerging application areas, design innovations, and education. The goal of the workshops is to generate ideas that might give the EuroHaptics community new ways of thinking about well-travelled themes and topics or that might suggest new promising directions for future work.

Workshops are held the day before the start of the conference and can be full or half-day in length.
