[4eyes] [ARFORUM] CFP: ISMAR 2015 - The 14th IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality

[Chris Sweeney]

Our lab did not submit any papers to ISMAR last year and we should work
hard to make sure that is not the case again this year. We are seen by the
community as a great lab for AR/MR/VR so it is important to establish our
good work at these conferences.

If anybody has projects that involve SLAM or SfM I can gladly help out in
whatever way possible. I am also always available if anybody wants to
simply brainstorm, bounce ideas off each other, or needs general advice.
