RO-MAN 2026 (the 35th IEEE Robot and Human Interactive Communication conference) is officially confirmed for Kitakyushu, Japan, 24–28 August 2026 — the Auckland / 11 October 2026 aggregator listing is incorrect.
RO-MAN is a real, long-running IEEE conference. Its 2026 edition — the 35th IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication — is confirmed by the official organiser site as being held in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Japan, on 24–28 August 2026, not in Auckland on 11 October 2026.
The official RO-MAN 2026 site and the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society event page both place the conference in Kitakyushu in August. The Auckland / 11 October 2026 entry does not match the confirmed host city or dates and appears to be an aggregator error. It is recorded here as a correction rather than a New Zealand event.
