Our workshop at CoRL 2026 invites submissions on the evaluation, diagnosis, and improvement of fine-grained robot manipulation. We particularly welcome new, preliminary, and in-progress work that moves beyond aggregate success rates and provides deeper insight into how robotic systems understand, perceive, and execute manipulation tasks.
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
Participation in the MetaFine Open Competition is encouraged but not required for paper submission.
We welcome short research papers, position papers, benchmark proposals, competition reports, and reports of negative or preliminary results.
Previously published or accepted CoRL 2026 papers should not be resubmitted unless they contain substantial new material specifically developed for this workshop.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least two members of the program committee. Papers will be assessed based on relevance to the workshop, technical soundness, clarity, originality of the perspective or evidence, and potential to stimulate discussion.
Accepted papers will be presented in an interactive poster session. A small number of submissions will be selected for spotlight presentations. Authors will also be encouraged to contribute their findings, failure cases, and open questions to the workshop’s breakout discussions and post-workshop community artifact.
All deadlines are at 11:59 PM AoE.
