CfP: 4th Projector-Camera Systems (ProCams) Workshop, with CVPR 2007 *** CVPR 2007 ProCams Workshop CALL FOR PARTICIPATION *** 4th Projector-Camera Systems (ProCams) Workshop With IEEE Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2007 June 18, 2007, Minneapolis, MN http://www.procams2007.org/ There continues to be growing interest in systems that combine projection technology with computer vision. Examples include automatically calibrated display walls, interactive display surfaces, intelligent environments and performance art. A characteristic of these systems is their ability to passively sense an environment in support of real-time control of projected light. Research in this area spans a number of disciplines including computer vision, computer graphics, HCI and display technologies. In particular, the theory and techniques used by researchers in the area are related, sometimes complementarily, to traditional computer vision techniques employed in stereo-camera and gesture recognition systems. The goal of this workshop is to bring researchers from these different areas together and continue fostering a common research community by examining common research problems and open issues. Workshop topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas: Automatic detection of projector, camera and surface characteristics Multi-view geometry applied to projectors and cameras Geometric and photometric calibration Radiometric compensation Novel user-interfaces People sensing Environment modeling Immersive and interactive displays Application experiences Architecture of projector-camera systems Computer vision in the presence of projected information Steerable projectors Virtual keyboards Novel applications Projector-camera-based art Historical or cultural exploration/preservation Projector-camera supported computational photography ProCams 2007 will be the fourth such workshop. ProCams 2003 was collocated with ICCV in Nice (http://www.procams.org/procams2003/), ProCams 2005 was held with CVPR in San Diego (http://www.procams.org/procams2005/), and ProCams 2006 was held with CVPR in New York http://www.procams.org/procams2006). This year's workshop will consist of invited talks, peer-reviewed technical presentations, and poster presentations. In addition, we are planning a combined technical demonstration/artistic exhibit session. Please see http://www.procams2007.org/ for complete submission instructions. Note that we will ask authors to explicitly commit to personally attend the workshop to present accepted submissions, or to arrange for a suitable replacement presenter. TECHNICAL PAPERS We encourage the submission of technical papers up to eight pages for oral presentation. If your paper could be accompanied by a hands-on demonstration, we encourage you to also submit a separate technical demonstration proposal (see below). Paper submissions not accepted for a full oral presentation might be offered the opportunity for a poster presentation. Email: papers@ProCams2007.org POSTERS We invite the submission of two-page proposals for technical or art-related poster presentations. Posters might describe recently completed work, work in progress, or publicly presentable ideas for unimplemented and/or unusual systems or applications. Posters Chair: Ruigang Yang (University of Kentucky) Email: posters@ProCams2007.org TECHNICAL AND ARTISTIC DEMONSTRATIONS We invite proposals for technical and artisic demonstrations during the planned demonstration/exhibit session. Researchers with accepted demonstrations may be awarded a limited grant to help defray related expenses. Awards will be based on needs and available funds.
