1st Workshop on the Internet of Mirrors (IoM): Connected Intelligence for Healthcare, Beauty, and Immersive Digital Experiences

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to invite your technical papers submissions to our 1st Workshop on the Internet of Mirrors (IoM): Connected Intelligence for Healthcare, Beauty, and Immersive Digital Experiences, which will be held in IEEE WF-IoT 2026 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Workshop Focus

The Internet of Mirrors (IoM) is an emerging IoT ecosystem built around interconnected smart mirrors that can sense, process, communicate, and deliver personalised services across healthcare, beauty, wellness, assisted living, fitness, and immersive digital experiences.
Although the workshop is centred on the Internet of Mirrors, the realisation of this vision requires multi-domain expertise. As such, we are very keen to receive contributions not only from researchers directly working on IoM, but also from those developing the architectures, algorithms, communication technologies, computing frameworks, and application domains that will underpin future intelligent IoT ecosystems.

Topics of Interest

• Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:Edge, fog, and cloud computing for IoT systems
• Distributed intelligence and multi-agent AI
• AI-enabled IoT applications and personalised services
• Multimodal sensing, data fusion, and contextual awareness
• Intelligent task orchestration and adaptive resource allocation
• Wireless connectivity, 5G/6G, and network optimisation
• Privacy-preserving AI, security, interoperability, and trustworthy AI
• Human-computer interaction, accessibility, and inclusive smart interfaces
• Digital twins, immersive technologies, and metaverse-enabled experiences
• Internet of Sounds, Internet of Medical Things, and broader Internet of Everything ecosystems
• Smart healthcare, assisted living, wellness, fitness, beauty, and immersive digital lifestyle applications
• Proof-of-concept implementations, benchmarking, testbeds, and real-world IoT deployments

Important Dates 

• Paper submission deadline: 12 July 2026
• Notification of acceptance: 15 August 2026
• Camera-ready deadline: 30 August 2026
