[4eyes] Open House May 19 - INPUT NEEDED ASAP

[Matthew Turk]

[Note: this is a priority request; please attend to this by Wednesday.]

 

We are overdue getting information on our open house (and MAT’s End of Year Show) to the MAT organizers. Everyone in the lab who is advised by Tobias, John, or me, or who is doing work affiliated with the Four Eyes Lab, is responsible for participating in the lab’s open house, which is our annual opportunity to show off our research to the local community. If you’re not sure whether or not you should participate, feel free to ask us. In addition to major research projects, we’d like to show off smaller projects and other things that people might be interested in to learn more about what goes on in the lab – like last year’s very popular HoloLens demos. So sign up for these too!

 

We need to submit information on projects to be included ASAP. Below is a link to a shared spreadsheet and directory, where you should provide, for each project (some people may have more than one project):

 

-          Project title (make one up if there’s not already a clear title)

-          Full names of people involved in the project

-          Main point of contact (one of the above people)

-          Type of presentation – one or more of: Demo, poster, presentation (using laptop, monitor, etc.)

-          Project description: 250-500 words

-          Brief description of resources needed (equipment, space)

-          Images: 

o   A high-resolution image to go along with the project (at least 3000x2000) and a thumbnail image (240x180).

o   (optional) 2-4 other images or screenshots showing the project

o   (optional) a diagram associated with the project (system diagram or other)

 

All of these except the last should be added in this spreadsheet:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qUhGi0dhPXcZo4zpl9Ei46LV4l2aXy0UCTKRGsExszI/edit?usp=sharing

 

The images should be added here, labeled by the project name:

Please get together with your collaborators and submit your project info. This won’t take long.

 

Thanks,

                Matthew

Subject: FW: [MAT-announce] [EoYS] Call for Submissions

 

Folks,

 

The lab open house – part of the MAT End of Year Show – will be on Friday, May 19th (typically around 5-9pm). For anyone new to the lab this year, this is a big event, with hundreds of people showing up to see what MAT is showing off (most of the MAT students are exhibiting their work) and what the Four Eyes Lab has been doing. If you are a research affiliated with the lab, you should plan on displaying one or more of your research projects at this event.

 

These are typically demos of your research that either let people experience your technology or view an explanation of your research with examples (physical and/or video). While PowerPoint slides alone may not generally be preferable, in some cases that is appropriate.

 

In addition to the cutting-edge research that many of you are doing, we can also exhibit more generic things related to the focus of the lab. For example, last year people really enjoyed just getting to try the HoloLens. For some of you who are involved in the lab but won’t have research to show off yet, you can consider participating by doing something like that.

 

We need to identify what projects we’ll include and provide information to the MAT organizers about these by April 10th (or so). Please start thinking about what you can show/demo/present/explain at the Open House – we’ll follow up soon to start gathering a list. Meanwhile, see the attached info about what MAT needs from us.

 

Thanks,

                Matthew
