The IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society (SMCS) and Swinburne University of Technology invites young researchers (postgraduate research students and early-career researchers who have graduated within the past five years) worldwide to participate in the IEEE SMCS Open Source AI-Empowered Human–Machine Teaming (HMT) Competition. This exciting two-phase challenge is designed to advance innovation in autonomy, artificial intelligence, robotics, and human–machine interaction.

This competition offers a unique opportunity to design, build, and test intelligent human–machine teaming solutions—from simulation to real-world implementation.
