Mixed and Augmented Reality aim for the creation of exciting new ways to
see and interact with the world. It drives the development and  
integration
of new user interfaces, displays and computing technologies. The range  
of
MR and AR applications is booming, and a number of commercial  
applications
are starting to appear.

The IEEE/ACM ISMAR is a yearly gathering that for the last various years
has attracted experts from a range of fields such as signal processing,
computer vision, computer graphics, user interfaces, human factors,
wearable computing, mobile computing, computer networks, displays,
sensors and related.

Furthermore, ISMAR is one of the friendliest conferences around,
cherished by its high quality contributions and openness of discussions.
