Call for Participation
Original research results and concepts on the following topics are encouraged:
- Methods and ideas for the identification of application scenarios
- Modelling concepts for geo-spatial (end-user) content creation
- Conceptual designs and scenarios of spatially-aware interaction techniques
- Outdoor testing methods for spatially aware applications
- Augmented/parallel reality concepts in gaming, arts, tourism, etc
- Location/orientation sensing technologies and migration paths from legacy to state-of-the-art technology
- Mobile social applications and services involving the interaction with information created by other users
- Indoor navigation and spatial awareness
- Practicality and feasibility issues regarding technologies, application design and data modelling
- Combination of spatial interaction with gesture-based interaction
- Dealing with sensor uncertainty e.g. what happens when GPS shadows occur or there is less accurate wireless transmitter triangulation?
- Multimodal integration, e.g. by adding spatial audio, touch, or scent
Please note that the workshop focuses on interactions with information attached to the surrounding space. Pure gestural interaction with a device is therefore explicitly excluded from the scope of this workshop.
Submission Instructions
Interested individuals should submit a 2-4 page position paper in the CHI extended abstracts format by January, 12 via e-mail to msi_submissions@ftw.at.
It is planned to publish revised versions of selected papers in a special journal issue such as Personal and Ubiquitous Computing.
