The Journal of Field Robotics seeks to promote scholarly publications dealing with the fundamentals of robotics in unstructured and dynamic environments. We welcome and encourage the submission of papers on robotics research covering:

Real-world applications: environment, construction, forestry, agriculture, mining, nuclear, subsea, intelligent highways, healthcare, search and rescue, military, and space (orbital and planetary).
Technical and scientific topics: sensing, sensors, mechanical design, computing architectures, communication, planning, learning, and control, human-robot interaction, robotic verification, validation and security.
The Journal encourages publication of work that has both theoretical and practical significance. Authors will be encouraged to implement their work and demonstrate its utility on significant problems with an emphasis on the underlying principles. That is, the Journal will encourage reporting on what was learned in doing the work, rather than merely on what was done. Also encouraged are comparative or meta-studies and verification of theoretical results as well as reports of extended field experiments that seek to validate autonomous systems in representative environments. Accepted paper submission categories include the research paper, review paper, research note (or short paper), field report, and invited paper.
