Call for Student Volunteers

The ISMAR 2007 organizing committee is recruiting student volunteers for various supporting roles during the conference.

About ISMAR 2007

Mixed Reality (MR) and Augmented Reality (AR) allow the creation of  
novel types of user interfaces integrating computer-generated  
information into the real world. Applications of this technology are  
beginning to have a significant impact on industry and society. The  
research field is highly interdisciplinary, bringing together  
computer vision, computer graphics, user interfaces, human factors,  
wearable computing, mobile computing, computer networks, displays,  
sensors, to name just some of the most important influences.

Since 1999, ISMAR is the premier forum in this vibrant field. In the  
year 2007, we are proud to present the 6th IEEE and ACM International  
Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality (ISMAR 2007). The symposium will be held on Nov. 13-16, 2007, in historical Nara, Japan. We invite students to join our supporting volunteer staff at this event.

Student volunteer activities:

Typical student volunteer activities include helping with on-site  
registration, packing conference bags with proceedings, setting up  
and removing tables, and assisting with audio/visual problems.  
Student volunteers may need to arrive one or two days earlier to get  
oriented with the environment, the organizing committee, and the  
resources within the conference area as well as to help with pre-
conference preparations.

Why volunteer?

In return of their service, students volunteers receive free  
registration to this event. However, travel and accommodation  
expenses are at your own charge.

Due to the highly interdisciplinary nature of this community, student  
volunteers will have the opportunity to exchange ideas with leading  
researchers from various branches of science (computer science,  
psychology, optics, etc.) and engineering that relate to augmented  
reality.
