Please submit your paper electronically in the PDF format using the following submission link: https://conferences.sparcly.ai/SP/ICCE_Berlin2026
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished manuscripts of 2- to 6-page length, including figures and references, with a 200-word abstract, written in English, using the 10-point font, double-column, single-space IEEE conference paper format. Previously published papers or papers under review for other conferences/journals should not be submitted for consideration. All papers must be submitted through the Sparcly.ai Conference Management System website. No more than two (2) additional printed pages (10-point font) over the 6-page limit may be included in your submission, and the extra pages will incur an over-length page charge of US$100 per page, if accepted for publication.
Before uploading the final manuscript PDF to Sparcly.ai, you must ensure that your file is IEEE-compliant, by using the IEEE PDF eXpress® system (Conference ID: 71611X). For that, you can use an existing account or create a new one. Manuscripts that are not IEEE-compliant will not be included in the conference proceedings.

All technical papers that have been accepted, registered, and presented (including 2-page-, regular, special session and research forum papers) will be published in the ICCE Berlin 2026 Proceedings and submitted to IEEEXplore for indexing.
IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference, including IEEE Xplore® Digital Library, if the paper is not presented by the author at the conference.
A selected set of papers of the ICCE Berlin 2026 programme will be invited for re-submission to special issues of peer-reviewed journals (IEEE CE Magazine, IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics) based on reviewer’s feedback and quality of conference presentation.
If you have any questions regarding the submission of manuscripts,
please contact the Technical Program Chair.
We look forward to your contributions to the ICCE-Berlin 2026 conference.
