Confirmed Speakers
Yesha Sivan, Jon Preston, Jeff Chastine, Dov Teeni, Arijit Sengupta, Shu
Schiller, Lester Leavitt, Anna-Kaisa Sjölund

Agenda
*08:30--09:00 Breakfast & Welcome*

*09:00--09:30  Status of AR Today* (followed by the "SIGHT" Movie)

Prof.* Yesha Sivan*, JVWR Managing Editor, Tel Aviv-Yafo Academic College,
Israel
A review of the current state of the field, and its potential impact.

*009:30--10:00 Augmented Reality: a Narrative, Symbiotic Approach in
Combining Virtual and Physical Worlds*

*Jon Preston*, Associate Professor,  Computer Game Design and Development,
Southern Polytechnic State University, GA , USA; and *Jeff Chastine*,
Associate Professor, School of Computing and Software Eng., Southern
Polytechnic State University, GA, USA
Present a new breed of AR computing services and applications to explore
collaborative, location-aware augmented reality. Such a system could be
visually based, but could also be passive and be working within a user's
pocket while they go about their daily activities. We foresee applications
of gamification and encouraging positive behaviors such as attending
meetings, courses for students, and visiting stores from a marketing
perspective based upon this system. Our approach is novel in that it
explicitly asks what is possible via non-visual augmented reality and how
far this passive computing system can be expanded with virtual
interactions. We will demo this fully-functional system at the workshop and
seek partners in expanding this research.

*10:00--11:00 *Submitted Presentations:
*- Enabling Virtual Assistance in the Real World using Augmented Reality
and Sensor-equipped Mobile Devices*

*Arijit Sengupta*, Professor of Information Systems and Supply Chain
Management, Faculty of Information Systems and Operations, Raj Soin College
of Business, Wright State University, OH, USA;  and *Shu Schiller*,
Associate Professor, Faculty of Information Systems and Operations, Raj
Soin College of Business, Wright State University, OH, USA.
The aim of this research is to create an augmented reality architecture and
application, the Virtual Assistant, to link the real world and the virtual
equivalent using mobile technology.  The presentation will cover the model,
its underlying architecture, applicability and extensibility in current AR
research, and provide a working demonstration of the developed application
that implements this concept.

*- Augmented Reality ICT and Governing: Imagining a Day When Elections
become Redundant*

*Lester Leavitt*, Graduate Assistant, School of Public Administration,
Florida Atlantic University.
This presentation outlines an augmented reality socio-technical governing
institution that has been designed singularly for marginalized minority
groups and global solidarity movements such as those witnessed in 2011.
Beyond providing a simple virtual office environment or legislature, the
ICT and database algorithms described in this presentation outline how the
creation of a global, crowd-sourced, multimedia “institutional memory” that
supports progressive “collectivethought” policy-making will serve to
incubate comprehensive, community-sized, virtual collectives from which
entire web-based economies might emerge, complete with brick-and-mortar
extensions.

*- AR-tools for Emergency Care – Education in Virtual World*

*Anna-Kaisa Sjölund*, Doctoral Student, researcher at Digital Culture,
University of Turku, Finland
This presentation is about creating AR–tools and describing how to use them
in immersive way. Paramedic students and teachers from Turku University of
applied sciences will have a course in Second Life to test AR–tools in
two-way, to and from virtual world.

*11:00--11:30 **Augmented Reality in I.S.: Setting a Research Agenda*

*Dov Teeni*, Professor of Information Systems in the faculty of Management
at Tel-Aviv University, Israel

*11:30--12:00 Review and Discussion*
