Preface
Inthisvolume,youwillfindtheproceedingsoftheEuroHaptics2020conference,held
during September 6–9, 2020, in Leiden, The Netherlands. EuroHaptics is a major
international conference, organized biannually, that features the latest advances in
haptics science, technology, and applications. The 2020 edition of the meeting had a
special focus on accessibility, and in the spirit of the focus, we have made the pro-
ceedings open access.
The organization of the conference faced a unique challenge, as the start of the
review process coincided with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Like in all
aspects of our lives, we also had to reinvent our scientific life, and find a new way to
work. Conferences were canceled, moved to later dates, or re-organized as online
virtual conferences. Eurohaptics 2020 was rescheduled; instead oflate spring (June) it
was held in September. Many of the authors, reviewers, and editors faced challenges:
lab shutdowns, the transition to online teaching, and caring for our families to name
just a few. Considering the event, we are thankful for the effort and dedication to
scientific rigor of the 220 external reviewers and 35 associate editors as they juggled
additional tasks and limited resources to finish the editorial process. We also want to
acknowledge the diligence of authors to improve their papers in the midst of uncer-
tainty and, for many of them, without access to their usual resources. Their commit-
ment though the hardship of the situation made this conference possible.
All aspects of haptics, including neuroscience, psychophysics, perception, engi-
neering,computing,interactions,virtualreality,andtheartswerecoveredintheinitial
submissionsforthefull-papercategory.The111submissionscamefrom24countries:
50% from Europe, 37% from Asia, and 10% from North America. The Application,
Science and Technology track chairs invited experts to the Program Committee and
provided initial advice on three or four papers. The Program Committee members
invited three independent reviewers and provided an assessment on the basis of a
minimumoftworeviews.Tobeaccepted,weexpectedaninnovativeideaaswellasa
diligent experimental evidence, and 60 of the submissions (55%) were accepted for
publication. These papers were presented either as oral (36) or as poster presentations
(24). In the proceedings, the two types of presentations are published with no dis-
tinction between them.
The conference also featured work in progress abstracts which allowed for pre-
sentation of late-breaking results as a poster, receiving feedback from the community.
The abstracts of these posters are not featured in these proceedings.
Finally, we are delighted to be part of such a dynamic and innovative community,
andwebelievethattheproceedingsreflectitscreativityanddepthofthought.Wehope
vi Preface
that the works presented in these proceedings will serve as inspiration and spark new
ideas for a better future where everyone is haptically connected.
