*** Apologies for cross-posting, please distribute *** 4th IEEE International Workshop on Networked Immersive Audio
Cannes, France, 29th October 2026 https://internetofsounds2026.ieee-internetofsounds.org/satellite-events Call for papers and demos Networked Immersive Audio is an emerging topic in sound-based communications. To date, scarce research has been conducted on how to integrate networking systems with immersive audio rendering techniques able to enrich a listener's perception of sharing the same acoustic environment and to provide the localization information of remote users or other real or virtual acoustic sources. The aim of IEEE IWNIA 2026 is to bring together academics and industry to investigate and advance the development of systems at the confluence of spatial audio and networking, as well as the understanding of human perception in immersive, networked contexts. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
We consider contributions in the form of full papers (min 5 pages, max 10 pages), poster papers (4 pages), or a demo proposal (max 2 pages). We encourage the submission of work in progress as well as more mature work. For music submissions please refer to the call of the main IEEE IS2 2025 event: Activities Besides the presentations of the accepted contributions (papers, posters, demos), the program of the workshop will include a tutorial, a keynote and a panel with experts from both academia and industry. Awards The Organizing Committee will select the winners for the Best Paper, Best Student Paper, and Best Demo awards. To be eligible for the Best Student Paper award, the presenting and first author of the paper must be a full-time student. Venue The workshop is a satellite event of the 7th IEEE International Symposium on the Internet of Sounds (IEEE IS2 2026: https://internetofsounds2026.ieee-internetofsounds.org/), which will be hosted in the city of Cannes, France, and will take place between the 28th and 30th of October 2026. The workshop as well as the main Symposium will be held in hybrid form, virtual and in presence. Important dates
Publications The workshop proceedings will be part of the IEEE IS2 2025 proceedings, which will be submitted to the IEEE for publication. Organizing Committee
