Science Robotics

Common

The top robotics-focused journal published under the Science family of journals.

Science Robotics is a sister journal of Science, published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). Launched in 2016 and issued monthly, it covers robot hardware, control, learning, medical robotics, bio-inspired design, and related areas. It favors work with complete systems and real-world validation, publishes relatively few papers, and carries substantial influence, making it one of the most respected journals in robotics. Unlike conference papers, journal articles go through a longer review cycle and are written more completely, often accompanied by extensive video material. Multiple landmark papers on reinforcement-learning-based legged locomotion have appeared here.

ExampleThe paper on perceptive locomotion for the ANYmal quadruped over complex terrain (Miki et al., 2022) was published in Science Robotics.
