Submission. The submission portal is now open, and we consider papers in all areas of applied perception, including all sensory modalities (vision, haptics, acoustics, proprioception, etc.). We welcome short and long papers of up to 4 and 8 pages respectively (not including references or appendices). Details can be found here: http://sap.acm.org/2022/.  

 Invited ACM TAP Journal Publication. Under an agreement with the ACM Transactions on Applied Perception (TAP) and the ACM Publications Board, the strongest accepted papers will be offered publication as full papers in the ACM journal TAP (instead of appearing in the proceedings) after an additional review cycle.
