Enabling Large-Scale Outdoor Mixed Reality and Augmented Reality ISMAR workshop

I’m very excited to be involved co-organizing a workshop at ISMAR this year on enabling large scale MAR. If you’re interested in participating, the research topics include (but are not restricted to):

3D geo-referenced data (images, point clouds, and models)

Algorithms for object recognition from large databases of geo-referenced data

Algorithms for object tracking in outdoor environment

Multi-cue fusion to achieve improved performance of object detection and tracking

Novel representation schemes to facilitate large-scale content distribution

3D reasoning to support intelligent augmentation

Novel and improved mobile capabilities for data capture (device sensors), processing, and display

Applications, experiences, and user interface techniques.

The organizing and program committees are stellar, it’s a real honour to be working with this group, and I’m looking forward to the event on September 26th immensely. Special thanks to Matei Stroila of Navteq Research for putting together the site and the call for submissions while most of us were on vacation!
