[4eyes] Allosphere tour for summer program Mon. 12:30pm

[Tobias Hollerer]

OK, so we only have 25 glasses for the Allosphere, so let's
break up the group.

MAT student Charlie Roberts will be there to give demos
in the Allosphere.

Several Four Eyes lab members (including myself) have volunteered
to be there and talk about and demonstrate augmented
reality to the second half of your group.

EVERYONE: These kids are middle school students (entering
6-9 grade), so please prepare the level of demonstration
accordingly. The goal obviously is to make them feel welcome,
engage them, and interest them in computer science concepts.

Here is a web site to Diana's project:

Thanks & Cheers,

	Tobias
