2014 ISMAR Workshops

Advanced Manufacturing with Augmented Reality
Date & Time : September 08 09:00 am - 05:30 pm
Location : TBA
Advanced Manufacturing with Augmented Reality
Organizers:
Christine Perey, AR Community and AR for Enterprise Alliance, Fridolin Wild, Open University, Kaj Helin, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Miroslav Janak, Technical University of Košice, Paul Davies, Boeing, Patrick Ryan, Newport News Shipbuilding
Advanced Manufacturing with Augmented Reality
Description:

During this workshop, the participants will explore themes in three areas:

  • Augmented Reality and Technical Data Delivery. In this area we will hear from experts and engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to deliver technical data in 2014.
  • Augmented Reality and the Shop Floor Environment. In this area we will engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to map value streams and increase value, to avoid waste and increase sustainability, and to reduce risk and prevent human error on the shop floor in 2014. This will be documented in a brief, joint statement. Participants will then develop consensus on three major research areas on which there must be further investment in order for the technology to be widely implemented and adopted on the shop floor.
  • Augmented Reality and Quality Inspection. In this area we will engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to inspect manufactured goods in 2014. This will be documented in a brief, joint statement. Participants will then develop consensus on three major research areas on which there must be further investment in order for the technology to be widely implemented and adopted.
The three themes of the workshop are highly relevant to the ISMAR conference, not least since the region -- Bavaria -- strives in the use of AR in the manufacturing industry. This workshop will increase awareness of the current state of the art in industry and help further develop the research agenda for AR in manufacturing through the identification of common interests and grand challenges. This workshop will produce nine research topics that can become the basis for academic and public/private partnership-funded research projects.

Workshop on Tracking Methods & Applications
Date & Time : September 08 09:00 am - 06:00 pm
Location : TBA
Workshop on Tracking Methods & Applications
Organizers:
Jonathan Ventura, University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, USA, Daniel Wagner, Qualcomm, Austria, Daniel Kurz, metaio, Germany, Harald Wuest, Fraunhofer IGD, Germany, Selim Benhimane, Intel, USA
Workshop on Tracking Methods & Applications
Description:

The focus of this workshop is on all issues related to tracking for mixed and augmented reality applications.

Unlike the tracking sessions of the main conference, this workshop does not require pure novelty of the proposed methods; it rather encourages presentations that concentrate on complete systems and integrated approaches engineered to run in real-world scenarios.

The research fields covered include self-localization using computer vision or other sensing modalities (such as depth cameras, GPS, inertial, etc.) and tracking systems issues (such as system design, calibration, estimation, fusion, etc.). This year's focus is also expanded to research on object detection and semantic scene understanding with relevance to augmented reality.  Implementations on mobile devices and under real-time constraints are also part of the workshop focus. These are issues of core importance for practical augmented reality systems.
