In cooperation with ACM (pending)
In the last decade Mixed Reality (MR) and Augmented Reality (AR) have=20
evolved from being experimental technologies to mainstream research=20
activities that are starting to show impact on industry and society.=20
By their very nature, MR and AR are highly interdisciplinary fields=20
involving signal processing, computer vision, computer graphics, user=20
interfaces, human factors, wearable computing, mobile computing,=20
computer networks, distributed computing, information access,=20
information visualization, and hardware design for new displays and
sensors. MR/AR concepts are applicable to a wide range of applications.
The International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality is the=20
premier forum of the field. A series of independent conferences on=20
Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality started in 1999, and has led=20
to a joint symposium in 2002, This year we are proud to present the=20
third installment of the series, the 3rd International Symposium on=20
Mixed and Augmented Reality (ISMAR04).
The symposium will be held from Nov 2-5, 2004, in Arlington, VA (near=20
Washington, DC). It will be co-located with the 8th IEEE International=20
Symposium on Wearable Computers, ISWC04 (Oct 31-Nov 3, 2004), to bring=20
together the MR/AR and wearables communities. We invite you all to=20
participate in this great event for the exchange of new ideas in this=20
exiting field!
