=================================================================== Call for Papers/Posters/Demos 5th International Workshop on Projector-Camera Systems (PROCAMS2008) 10 August (Sunday), 2008 http://www.procams2008.org Location: Los Angeles, California, USA Co-located with SIGGRAPH 2008 Full Paper Submission Deadline: 15 May, 2008 Poster/Demo Submission Deadline: 10 June, 2008 =================================================================== PROCAMS2008 10 August, 2008 http://www.procams2008.org CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS SCOPE: Systems that couple controllable light with light sensing devices facilitate a wide range of applications. Examples include: 3D scanning, flexible display walls, novel display interaction, reflectance field capture, optical communication, and artistic creations. While the term "projector-camera" is used, such systems encompass any approach that employs a controllable light-source, ranging from LEDs to an array of light projectors, with any light sensing device, ranging from a simple photo-sensor to an array of high-resolution wide-field-of-view cameras. The PROCAMS workshop series serves as an annual gathering place for researchers and practitioners who use, build, and design projector-camera systems for a wide variety of applications and purposes. The workshop solicits papers, posters, and demo submissions on all topics relating to projector-camera systems. New to this year, PROCAMS 2008 will be co-located with SIGGRAPH'08 in Los Angeles. The workshop wil also include a keynote presentation by Henry Fuchs (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) and a tour of the Institute of Creative Technology at the University of Southern California. PROCAMS2008 invites submissions of three types: technical papers, posters, and demos. Details are given in the sections below. A "best paper award" will be given to the top paper selected by the program committee. This year's workshop places emphasis on (but is not limited too) all technical, systems, and theoretical aspects related to projector-camera (light source/sensing) systems used in the follow six areas: Scene Capture - Structured-light systems for scene capture - 3D Geometry, reflectance, and motion capture Display - Projector-based display systems - Geometric and radiometric calibration Augmentation and Interaction - Spatially augmented reality - User interfaces and novel applications Mobility - Personal/pocket projectors - Mobile phone projector systems Optical Communication - Data transfer via projector-camera systems - Optical pattern coding Art and Aesthetics - Projector-based art - Controllable Ambient lighting --------------------------- Technical Papers Submission We encourage the submission of technical papers for oral presentation. If your paper could be accompanied by a hands-on demonstration, we encourage you to also submit a separate technical demonstration proposal (see below). Paper submissions not accepted for a full oral presentation may be offered the opportunity for a poster presentation. Submissions can be up to 8 pages in length. They should be "camera ready" PDF files (only) with full author names and affiliations (reviews are not blind), prepared in the ACM SIGGRAPH format. Include supplemental pictures and/or video if appropriate and possible. Videos should be MPEG4 format (DivX 6.0 is encouraged). Further instructions are available via the Online Submission System at the workshop website: http://www.procams2008.org FULL PAPERS IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: May 15, 2008 (midnight EST) Notification: June 10, 2008 Final Manuscripts: June 20, 2008 (midnight EST) Note: We will ask authors to commit to personally attend the workshop to present accepted papers, or to arrange for a suitable replacement presenter. --------------------------- Posters Submission Posters presentations are intended to describe recently completed work, work in progress, or publicly presentable ideas for unimplemented and/or unusual systems or applications. Posters submissions are limited to 2-pages and should describe innovative and emerging ideas in the area of projector-camera systems. Accepted poster papers will require that at least one author attends the workshop to present the poster in an open poster session. Submissions can be up to 2 pages in length. They should be "camera ready" PDF files (only) with full author names and affiliations (reviews are not blind), prepared in the ACM SIGGRAPH format. Poster submissions are accepted by email to: chairs@procams2008.org POSTER IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for camera-ready posters: June 15th, 2008 (midnight EST) Notification: June 20th, 2008 Note: We will ask authors to commit to personally attend the workshop to present accepted posters, or to arrange for a suitable replacement presenter. ------------------------------------- Technical and Artistic Demonstrations We invite proposals for technical and artistic demonstrations during the planned demonstration/exhibit session. Demo sketches are limited to 2-pages and should describe innovative and emerging ideas in the area of projector-camera systems. Accepted demo sketches will require that at least one author/contributor attends the workshop to present the poster in an open poster session. Demo sketch submissions can 1-2 pages in length. They should be "camera ready" PDF files (only) with full author names and affiliations (reviews are not blind), prepared in the ACM SIGGRAPH format. DEMO IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for camera-ready posters: June 15th, 2008 (midnight EST) Notification: June 20th, 2008 Demo/Artistic submissions are accepted by email to: chairs@procams2008.org Note: We will ask authors to commit to personally attend the workshop to present accepted technical or artistic demonstrations, or to arrange for a suitable replacement presenter. --------------------- PROCAMS2008 Committee General Chairs: Ruigang Yang, University of Kentucky, USA Michael S.
