ISMAR 2022 Call for Conference Papers (May 27) & Poster Papers

CALL FOR CONFERENCE PAPERS (ISMAR 2022, SINGAPORE, OCTOBER 17-21, 2022)

https://ismar2022.org/call-for-conference-papers/

ISMAR 2022, the premier conference for Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR), will be held in Singapore from October 17-21, 2022. Note that following the changes to the ISMAR submission structure in 2021 we will again this year offer three distinct calls for papers. These are for journal paper, conference paper and poster paper tracks. This call is for submission to the conference paper track. See the ISMAR journal paper track and poster paper track for more information on those specific calls.

IMPORTANT DEADLINES

Abstract Deadline: May 27th, 2022 (23:59 AoE)

Paper Submission Deadline: June 3rd, 2022 (23:59 AoE)

Notification: August 3rd, 2022

Camera-ready version: August 22nd, 2022

ISMAR is responding to the increasing commercial and research activities related to Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR) and Virtual Reality (VR). ISMAR 2022 will this year continue to cover the full range of technologies encompassed by the MR continuum, from interfaces in the real world to fully immersive experiences.

ISMAR invites research contributions that advance AR/MR/VR, collectively referred to as eXtended Reality (XR), technologies, and are relevant to the community. Each research paper should report a validated contribution covering one or more of four styles as detailed below:

- Methodological papers should describe advances in theories and methods of XR.

- Technology papers should describe advancements in algorithms or devices critical to XR.

- System papers should indicate how the developers integrated existing methods, algorithms, and technologies to produce an effective system, and convey any lessons learned in the process.

- Application papers provide an important insight to the community by explaining how the authors built upon existing ideas and applied them to solve a relevant problem in a novel way.

We welcome papers that provide contributions in more than one of these areas. Authors need to select a primary designation during the submission process. Each paper should include an evaluation of its contributions appropriate to its type and the current COVID-19 situation (e.g., user study, case study, expert user feedback, system comparisons, technical benchmarking). We understand that many researchers are still facing major challenges with regard to in-person user evaluation. Thus we encourage authors to explore alternative ways to validate their contribution, such as employing expert reviews, online studies, or qualitative studies.

SUBMISSION DETAILS

We welcome paper submissions from 4-8 pages excluding references. Paper quality versus length will be assessed according to a contribution-per-page judgment. Depending on the outcome, papers could be accepted or rejected as conference papers or poster papers.

- All accepted papers will have the opportunity to be presented as a demo/poster.

- All accepted papers will be archived in the IEEE Xplore digital library.

Detailed submission and review guidelines are available on the conference website and the Guidelines section. Note that a paper abstract must be uploaded prior to the actual paper submission deadline (see submission deadlines). All paper submissions must be in English.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

All topics relevant to and advancing AR,MR and VR are of interest. VR papers are welcome regardless of their relevance to AR/MR. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Camera and projector-camera calibration

- Collaborative XR interfaces

- Computer vision

- Content creation / authoring and content management.

- Conversational and speech interfaces.

- Display technologies (e.g., eyewear, smart watches, projectors)

OVERVIEW

ISMAR 2022, the premier conference for Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR), will be held on October 17-21, 2022. Note that ISMAR offers three distinct calls for journals, papers, and posters. This call is for submission to the conference poster track. See the ISMAR website for more information.

IMPORTANT DEADLINES

Poster Paper Submission Deadline: June 20th, 2022

Notification: August 15th, 2022

Camera-ready version: August 22nd, 2022

ISMAR is responding to the increasing commercial and research activities related to AR and MR and Virtual Reality (VR) by continuing the expansion of its scope over the past several years. ISMAR 2022 will cover the full range of technologies encompassed by the MR continuum, from interfaces in the real world to fully immersive experiences.

ISMAR invites research contributions that advance AR/VR/MR technologies, collectively referred to as eXtended Reality (XR) technologies, and are relevant to the community.

The poster session is one of the highlights of ISMAR, where the community engages in a discussion about the benefits and challenges of XR in other research and application domains.

SUBMISSION DETAILS

We welcome paper submissions from 2-6 pages, including the list of references. Poster papers will be reviewed on the basis of an extended abstract, which can contain smaller contributions, late breaking developments or in-progress work.

Please note that ISMAR further distinguishes poster papers of 2 pages to be non-archival and poster papers of 3 or more pages to be archival. This means that authors of 2 page poster papers can resubmit longer versions of their accepted work, with additional details, at later ISMAR conferences.

All submissions will be accepted or rejected as poster papers.

All accepted papers will be archived in the IEEE Xplore digital library

At least one of the authors must register and attend the ISMAR 2022 conference to present the poster

The Poster track is co-aligned to the Conference Paper track, which may accept some Conference Paper submissions as posters based on the merit of their contribution. Detailed submission and review guidelines are available on the conference website and the Guidelines section.

Note that All paper submissions must be in English.
