"Sight" - a vision of AR in the near future: <a href="http://jvwresearch.us2.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=de4fa2a435382cb1fa67cb708&id=512d7f66a9&e=1410976b30" style="color:#333;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-style:normal;text-transform:underline" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPMggzUlcDc</a><br>
Intro to the workshop in Google Hangout: <a href="http://jvwresearch.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de4fa2a435382cb1fa67cb708&id=d4c69b3d86&e=1410976b30" style="color:#333;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-style:normal;text-transform:underline" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt7yGo2P96g</a><br>
<br>
Augmented Reality (for example: <a href="http://jvwresearch.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de4fa2a435382cb1fa67cb708&id=6e50dca7e2&e=1410976b30" style="color:#333;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-style:normal;text-transform:underline" target="_blank">http://mashable.com/follow/topics/augmented-reality/</a>) is one of the “hottest” topics in IT/IS. The rise of high-end mobile cameras, GPS, and devices with on-cloud computation allow for many new opportunities. Theoretical research in the field (see for example: <a href="http://jvwresearch.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de4fa2a435382cb1fa67cb708&id=dee4d9aea7&e=1410976b30" style="color:#333;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;font-style:normal;text-transform:underline" target="_blank">http://ismar.vgtc.org/</a>) is now being further developed into applications.<br>
