[4eyes] Fwd: [ARFORUM] 1st CfP: IEEE ISMAR 2015 Workshop on Collaboration in Mediated and Augmented Reality (CiMAR)

Tue Jun 2 11:03:01 PDT 2015

I don't think I'll have time to put together something for a full paper,
but if anyone else is interested I can definitely help. I'll consider
submitting a 2-page position paper. Collaboration via AR & MR is a very
exciting area and I'd encourage anyone interested to look into it
more--it's definitely a great application for augmented reality (and of
course, browse our previous work
