The IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces 2008 is the third international
symposium focused on the topic of 3D UIs and will be held to provide
an
intensive exchange between industrial and academic researchers working
in various 3DUI research areas and to trigger discussions among participants.
It builds on successful 3DUI workshops in 2004 and 2005, as well as
the IEEE 3DUI
Symposiums in 2006 and 2007. The symposium will last for two days,
and will be
followed immediately by the IEEE VR conference. The theme of the Symposium
will
cover all areas of 3D UI research. The Symposium themes include, but
are not
limited to, the following topics:
* 3D input devices
* 3D display devices
* 3D interaction techniques
* 3D user interface metaphors
* Collaborative 3D interaction
* Evaluation methods for 3D UIs
* Applications of 3D UI techniques
The Symposium solicits high quality papers and tech-notes within the
scope of 3DUI (see the double-submission policy on the 3DUI www server).
Papers
(up to 8 pages) should describe original and mature research results
and will
typically include some evaluation of the presented results. Tech-notes
(up to 4
pages) should contain unpublished preliminary results of research or
design
work. Papers and Tech-notes should be prepared in IEEE VGTC format
(http://
www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Tasks/camera.html<http://www.cs.sfu.ca/%7Evis/Tasks/
camera.html>) submitted through the submission web site in PDF format,
and will be reviewed by the program committee and external reviewers.
Reviewing
is double-blind. Accepted papers and tech-notes will be published by
IEEE in the
official Symposium proceedings. An International Award Committee will
also award
Best
Paper and Best Tech-notes awards, and authors of the best papers will
be
invited to submit an extended version to the journal Presence. For
further
information and for a detailed statement on double publication, please
see the
Symposium website: http://conferences.computer.org/3dui
The 3DUI Symposium invites posters within the scope of
three-dimensional user interfaces. Posters provide an interactive forum
in which
authors can present their work to symposium attendees at a special
poster session and
during conference breaks. Posters describe or discuss research work
that is
still in progress, sketch out novel ideas or systems, or present the
latest
implemented applications. Since posters are not publications, they
will be more
lightly reviewed than papers and tech-notes. However, they will also
appear in
the printed proceedings. Please see also the Double-Submissions Policy
.
Poster submissions should be in the form of a one or two page abstract
prepared in IEEE VGTC format. It should describe the author(s) and
affiliation,
the research problem, as well as the contribution to the field. Additional
material, such as videos or demos, may be included in the submission.

2nd International Workshop on Haptic and Audio Interaction Design
Call for Participation
Early registration: until 27th October 2007 (100 USD)

Workshop dates: 29-30 November 2007 in Seoul, Korea
http://www.haid2007.org
We apologise if you receive multiple copies of this notice
Overview Technologies to enable multimodal interaction are now sufficiently
mature that research is turning away from pure technology development
and
looking towards interaction and design issues. Robust solutions exist
to display audio and haptic feedback in many forms - for instance
as
speech and non speech sounds and through tactile and force feedback
sensations. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that the novel
interactions supported by these modalities can confer benefits
for
all users. However, many questions remain: how can we design
effective
haptic, audio and multimodal interfaces? In what new application
areas can we
apply these techniques? Are there design methods that are useful?
Or evaluation
techniques that are particularly appropriate?
While multimodal interfaces are attracting more and more attention,
there is relatively little work on how the haptic and auditory
modalities can be efficiently and effectively combined in an interface.
Is there
information which is better communicated using one modality rather
than another?
How can we link haptic and auditory displays so that changes
in one modality are
reflected in the other? Can we create complimentary relationships
between the
information displayed to each sense?
Additionally, how should we interact with these new displays and interfaces?
Is a direct manipulation interaction style still appropriate?
A technique that works well with a force feedback device but
may not be
appropriate for all types of displays. How should we interact with
a
tactile display, or manipulate a sonified graph?
Whilst audio and haptic interaction has been shown to be a useful tool,
neither sense has the bandwidth of the visual modality. Careful,
considered and informed interaction design will play a vital role if
multimodal systems are to move beyond the lab and into the real world.
This workshop seeks novel research addressing this human-centric challenge.
Program
The final program features keynotes from James Ballas of the US Naval
Research Laboratories and Dong-Soo Kwon of KAIST, a full program
of
peer
reviewed papers (to be published as an issue of Springer's LNCS)

Haptics-L:Haptics
in ambient media systems deadline extension
From: "Kanav Kahol" <Kanav.Kahol+-at-+
Date: Thu, 4 Oct 2007 14:33:40 -0700
Dear Gabriel
could you please circulate the deadline extension for Haptics in
Ambient media systems HAS 2008 workshop to the haptics community.
The deadline is now Oct 15th 2007.
here is the new cfp
Haptic in Ambient Systems (HAS 2008) in conjunction with First International
Conference on Ambient Media and Systems
Introduction
The role of haptics as a non-intrusive communication modality is a
relatively rich yet unexplored research area. However, the advent of
sophisticated haptic interfaces and tangible interfaces makes it
possible to employ haptics in facilitating ubiquitous and veridical
interactions between man and machine. This facet of the haptic user
interfaces uniquely suits ambient media systems that allow levels of
ease and
access previously never achieved by user interfaces. This workshop
will explore
the design, development and evaluation of haptic user interfaces for
ambient
media
systems. The topics of interest include but are not limited to:
1.Haptic psychophysics, perception and Cognition.
Sensory interfaces in ambient media systems need to adapt to the
haptic modality to deliver information accurately in a fast and efficient
manner. The Development of smart and effective haptic interfaces and
devices
requires extensive studies that link perceptual phenomena with
measurable parameters and incorporation of such domain knowledge in
the
engineering of haptic interfaces. Papers that explore psychophysical,
neural and
behavioral aspects of the haptic modality are solicited.
2.Sensor Actuator Design, Development And Evaluation.
Haptic sensing and actuating technology is maturing rapidly. Case
studies of haptic devices and touch based interfaces can provide
valuable insight in integration of such sensors and actuators in ambient
media
systems. Papers are solicited on sensors and actuators designed to
promote usage of haptics in ambient systems and technology.
3.Tangible User Interfaces.
Ambient interfaces can be greatly enhanced by physical representations
that are coupled with actively mediated digital representations. Papers
encompassing design, development and evaluation of tangible user interfaces
are solicited.
4.Applications of Haptic User Interfaces.
Papers on applications such as surgical simulations, aircraft
simulations, medical imaging, haptically enhanced gui's, are solicited.
5.Usability Evaluation of Haptic user interfaces.
Papers that cover fundamentals of learnability, efficiency,
memorability, productivity of haptic user interfaces as pertaining
to
ambient media systems will be solicited.

Potential speakers are expected to submit either a position paper (2
- 3
pages) or a full paper (up to 10 pages) that presents a formal or
experimental approach to the topics of HAS. Papers can either be based
on results already achieved or else describe future work or even just
wish
lists of features that future approaches should provide but are either
currently hard to achieve. Submissions should be uploaded on this page,
before the submission deadline. Unless explicit mention from the authors,a
submission implies that the authors give their authorization for
publication. Final versions of accepted papers will have to be given

* AMDIT 2008 - International Workshop on Ambient Media Delivery and
Interactive Television
http://aria.asu.edu/amdit08/
This workshop aims at fostering interdisciplinary discussions and
research in all aspects related to the data management challenges associated
with the design of ambient media delivery and user aware interactive
television systems. (SUBMISSION DEADLINE September 30).
* SOMITAS 2008 - First Workshop on Software Organisation and MonIToring
of Ambient Systems
http://liris.cnrs.fr/somitas/
The dream of an environment enhanced with a set of invisible computing
devices is slowly becoming a reality. While most technological requirements
can be fulfilled with the current technology, there are still many
open
questions regarding how to design, build and deploy this kind of systems
(SUBMISSION DEADLINE October 1st, 2007).
* HAS 2008 - Haptics in Ambient Media Systems.
http://haptics.eas.asu.edu/HAS/HAS.htm
Abstract: The advent of sophisticated haptic interfaces and tangible
interfaces makes it possible to employ haptics in facilitating
ubiquitous and veridical interactions between man and machine. This
facet of the
haptic user interfaces uniquely suits ambient media systems that allow
levels of ease and access previously never achieved by user interfaces.
This workshop will explore the design, development and evaluation of
haptic user interfaces for ambient media systems (SUBMISSION DEADLINE
October
1st, 2007).

Overview
Technologies to enable multimodal interaction are now sufficiently
mature that research is turning away from pure technology development
and
looking towards interaction and design issues. Robust solutions exist
to
display audio and haptic feedback in many forms - for instance as speech
and
non speech sounds and through tactile and force feedback sensations.
Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that the novel interactions
supported by these modalities can confer benefits for all users. However,
many
questions remain: how can we design effective haptic, audio and
multimodal interfaces? In what new application areas can we apply these
techniques?
Are there design methods that are useful? Or evaluation techniques
that
are particularly appropriate?
While multimodal interfaces are attracting more and more attention,
there is relatively little work on how the haptic and auditory modalities
can
be efficiently and effectively combined in an interface. Is there
information which is better communicated using one modality rather
than another?
How can we link haptic and auditory displays so that changes in one
modality are reflected in the other? Can we create complimentary relationships
between the information displayed to each sense? Additionally, how
should we interact with these new displays and interfaces? Is a direct
manipulation interaction style still appropriate? A technique that
works well with a force feedback device but may not be appropriate
for all
types of displays. How should we interact with a tactile display, or
manipulate a sonified graph?
Whilst audio and haptic interaction has been shown to be a useful tool,
neither sense has the bandwidth of the visual modality. Careful,
considered and informed interaction design will play a vital role if
multimodal
systems are to move beyond the lab and into the real world. This
workshop seeks novel research addressing this human-centric challenge.
HAID'07 is a direct successor to the successful first HAID workshop
held in Glasgow, UK in 2006:
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~mcgookdk/multivis/workshop.html
Topics
Contributions are welcomed in (but not limited to) the following areas:
- Novel haptic, audio and multimodal interfaces and interactions
- Evaluating multimodal interactions
- Design principles for multimodal systems
- Multimodal visualisations
- Cross modal interactions
- Auditory and haptic displays for visually impaired people
- Multimodal gaming and entertainment
- Collaborative multimodal systems
- Novel systems and interactions using other modalities (e.g.
taste,
smell)
Publication
The workshop will be published by Springer in their LNCS journal
series.

Overview
Technologies to enable multimodal interaction are now sufficiently
mature that research is turning away from pure technology development
and
looking towards interaction and design issues. Robust solutions exist
to
display audio and haptic feedback in many forms - for instance as speech
and
non speech sounds and through tactile and force feedback sensations.
Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that the novel interactions
supported by these modalities can confer benefits for all users. However,
many
questions remain: how can we design effective haptic, audio and
multimodal interfaces? In what new application areas can we apply these
techniques? Are there design methods that are useful? Or evaluation
techniques
that
are particularly appropriate?
While multimodal interfaces are attracting more and more attention,
there is relatively little work on how the haptic and auditory modalities
can
be efficiently and effectively combined in an interface. Is there
information which is better communicated using one modality rather
than another?
How can we link haptic and auditory displays so that changes in one
modality are reflected in the other? Can we create complimentary relationships
between the information displayed to each sense? Additionally, how
should we interact with these new displays and interfaces? Is a direct
manipulation interaction style still appropriate? A technique that
works well with a force feedback device but may not be appropriate
for all
types of displays. How should we interact with a tactile display, or
manipulate a sonified graph?
Whilst audio and haptic interaction has been shown to be a useful tool,
neither sense has the bandwidth of the visual modality. Careful,
considered and informed interaction design will play a vital role if
multimodal
systems are to move beyond the lab and into the real world. This
workshop seeks novel research addressing this human-centric challenge.
HAID'07 is a direct successor to the successful first HAID workshop
held in Glasgow, UK in 2006:
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~mcgookdk/multivis/workshop.html
Topics
Contributions are welcomed in (but not limited to) the following areas:
- Novel haptic, audio and multimodal interfaces and interactions
- Evaluating multimodal interactions
- Design principles for multimodal systems
- Multimodal visualisations
- Cross modal interactions
- Auditory and haptic displays for visually impaired people
- Multimodal gaming and entertainment
- Collaborative multimodal systems
- Novel systems and interactions using other modalities (e.g.
taste,
smell)
Posters due 24th August 2007, 12 midnight GMT
The aim of the poster session is to showcase work in progress or late
breaking results relevant to any of the themes of the workshop.
Submissions will be 2 page papers in the ACM format, and authors are
expected to
bring a poster describing their work to HAID'07. The papers will be
distributed in the HAID'07 ancillary proceedings (and hosted on the
website
afterwards) and there will be a dedicated poster session in which posters
authors
can present and discuss their work. Posters need not be anonymous,
but will
be subjected to a review process. Copyright will remain with the authors.
Demos due 24th August 2007, 12 midnight GMT
Haptic and audio systems often need to be tried to be fully understood
and appreciated. With this in mind, we welcome demonstration submissions
to
the HAID'07 workshop. These submissions can be stand alone or compliment
a
paper submission and we encourage the contribution of both research
prototypes and industrial applications. Demo submissions will take
the
form of a 2 page paper in the ACM format, and a brief accompanying
description of the demo installation. We will try to accommodate requests
for
specific layouts and equipment. The papers need not be anonymous, but
will
undergo a review process. Accepted papers will be distributed in the
ancillary
proceedings of the workshop (and hosted on the website afterwards)
and
attendees will have the opportunity to try out the demos in a dedicated
session. Copyright will remain with the authors.

http://www.ambi-sys.org/
NEW! IMPORTANT DATES
*******************************************************
Manuscript submission due: October 1, 2007
Acceptance notification: November 22, 2007
Final manuscript due: December 15, 2007
Conference dates: February 11-14, 2008
********************************************************
SCOPE: Ambient media and systems culminate from the emergence of mobile
communication, sensor-actuator technology, virtual environments, and
interactive computing. They represent the vision of an all-encompassing
multimedia networking environment with human interaction at its core.
Advances in computer and communication technologies have the potential
to offer people an unprecedented level of convenience and flexibility
for
living and working. Such technologies need to be closely integrated
with human interactions and activity, allowing greater support for
smart
solutions that improve quality of life, productivity, understanding
and
intelligence within their situated environment. Ambi-sys focuses on
emerging technologies, services and solutions for new, human-centric
intelligent ambient environments. The conference is structured into
the
following areas, each of which focuses on improving the state-of-the-art
for ambient media and systems:
- Media and Content Provision
- Human Interface and Interaction
- Communications and Networking
- Intelligence and Automation
Journal special issue: Selected papers of the conference will be
included in a special issue of the ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and
Applications.
Student paper awards: Four student prizes will be awarded to the best
papers authored by full time students as first author.
********* NEW! Workshops:
The following workshops will be held in conjunction with the
International Conference on Ambient Media and Systems (Ambi-sys 2008):
AMDIT 2008 - International Workshop on Ambient Media Delivery and
Interactive Television
http://aria.asu.edu/amdit08/
This workshop aims at fostering interdisciplinary discussions and

with the design of ambient media delivery and user aware interactive
television systems. (SUBMISSION DEADLINE September 30).
SOMITAS 2008 - First Workshop on Software Organisation and MonIToring
of Ambient Systems
http://liris.cnrs.fr/somitas/
The dream of an environment enhanced with a set of invisible computing
devices is slowly becoming a reality. While most technological
requirements can be fulfilled with the current technology, there are
still
many open questions regarding how to design, build and deploy this
kind of
systems (SUBMISSION DEADLINE October 1st, 2007).
HAS 2008 Haptics in Ambient Media Systems.
http://haptics.eas.asu.edu/HAS/HAS.htm
Abstract: The advent of sophisticated haptic interfaces and tangible
interfaces makes it possible to employ haptics in facilitating
ubiquitous and veridical interactions between man and machine. This
facet of the
haptic user interfaces uniquely suits ambient media systems that allow
levels of ease and access previously never achieved by user interfaces.
This workshop will explore the design, development and evaluation of
haptic user interfaces for ambient media systems (SUBMISSION DEADLINE
October
1st, 2007).

Technologies, and at encouraging the emergence of a multidisciplinary
research community in a new field of research and on a new generation
of human-computer interfaces called Enactive Interfaces.
We invite you to come and participate to this unique event by submitting
papers, posters, workshops and exhibit spaces.

ABOUT ENACTION
"...cognition is not the representation of a pregiven world by a
pregiven mind but is rather the enactment of a world and a mind on
the basis of a history of the variety of actions that a being in the world
performs.
Varela, Thompson, Rosch. The Embodied Mind , 1991
