Call For Participation
IEEE & ACM International Symposium on Augmented Reality 2001
ISAR'01
October 29-30, 2001
Columbia University, New York, NY

http://www.cs.columbia.edu/graphics/isar2001

Paper submissions due by June 5, 2001
		     				Demo submissions due by
August 5, 2001

Objectives:
ISAR'01 will provide an opportunity for Augmented Reality (AR) researchers
from academia and industry to meet in an informal atmosphere to exchange
ideas, concepts, and research results. ISAR is meant to trigger discussions
among participants and to provide an intensive exchange between academic and
industrial branches as well as between researchers working in the different
AR research areas.

History:
ISAR'01 is the fourth in a series of successful events sponsored by IEEE and
ACM in cooperation with Eurographics:

*	 AR applications
*	 personal AR information systems
*	 industrial AR applications 
*	 medical AR applications
*	 AR for Architecture
*	 requirements for usable AR
*	 system architecture (software and hardware design)
*	 wearable computing
*	 performance issues (approaches for achieving real-time AR)
*	 distributed AR
*	 information presentation
*	 display hardware
*	 real-time rendering
*	 photorealistic rendering (e.g. reflection analysis)
*	 object overlay
*	 aural augmentation
*	 Diminished Reality
*	Mixed Reality
*	 sensors for position and orientation tracking
*	 calibration methods
*	 tracker registration methods
*	 tracking during user motion
*	 tracking of changes in the real world (moving objects)
*	 computer vision methods for registration
*	 acquisition of 3D scene descriptions
*	 consideration of human factors
