Call For Papers - CFP

Immersive telecommunications is an emerging multi-disciplinary field with contributions from telecommunications and networking, signal processing, computer vision, virtual reality, spatial audio processing, user interfaces, and human factors. IMMERSCOM aims to bring researchers and scientists from academia and industry together to advance the state of the art in immersive telecommunications sciences, technologies and systems.

TOPICS

The conference solicits original technical papers that are not previously published or currently under review for publication elsewhere. General themes of the conference include but are not limited to:

Scene Capture for Immersive Communication

Multi-camera and depth sensor based 3D video capture systems, multimodal scene capture, 3D reconstruction and other representations from capture data, view synthesis and interpolation, pervasive sensing

Communications and Networking for Immersive Applications

Communication for rich 3D visualization, tele-presence, and mixed/augmented reality; QoS for immersive applications; robustness to loss over networks, low latency communication, real-time protocols, synchronization

Computer Vision for Immersive Communication

3D reconstruction and modeling, activity detection, face and pose detection and recognition, eye contact, gesture recognition, body tracking, mobility issues, tele-reality, data fusion

User Interfaces and Human Factors for Immersive Experiences

Stereoscopic, auto-stereoscopic and multi-view displays and interfaces; multi-projector and projector-camera systems;mixed/augmented reality interfaces, interactive environment interfaces, affective user interfaces, haptics; handheld and wearable device interfaces, multimodal interfaces, tele-presence interfaces; perceptual interfaces, human factors and usability

AudioProcessing for Immersive Communication

Multi-channel echo cancellation, de-reverberation, spatial audio capture and synthesis, microphone and speaker arrays, source localization and diarization, multimodal processing

Multimedia Coding for Immersive Communication

Coding of audio, video, multi-view video, and depth with various 3D representations; coding for distributed multimedia sensors (camera & microphone) networks, compressed sensing, real-time coding

Applications, Systems, and Architectures

Tele-presence; gaming; medical and bio-medical applications; educational systems; virtual museums, meetings and classrooms; social networking
