The Late-Breaking Reports (LBR) venue at HRI 2025 provides authors with the opportunity to present early-stage results and new ideas on exciting, cutting-edge, and experimental research. This track is an excellent opportunity for researchers new to the field
to participate in the conference. All LBR submissions will undergo double-blind peer review, and accepted LBRs will be published in the conference proceedings, available in both the ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore.</div>
