Asia Pacific Workshop on Mixed Reality (APMAR 2017)

Aim and Scope of the workshop

Asia Pacific Workshop on Mixed and Augmented Reality (APMAR) is the successor of the Korea-Japan Workshop on Mixed Reality (KJMR) which has been held between 2008 and 2015, and the Asia-Pacific Workshop on Mixed Reality (APMR) in 2016. We were happy to have wonderful KJMR and APMR, and decided to extend this area to mixed and augment reality (APMAR). Asia Pacific Workshop on Mixed and Augmented Reality (APMAR) will be held at Beijing, China. APMAR is seeking for submissions related to AR, VR and MR.

In the last decade Mixed Reality (MR) has evolved from being experimental technologies to mainstream research activities that are starting to show impact on industry and society worldwide. The aim of this workshop is to create opportunities for sharing and exchanging research results and practical experiences in this exciting field in an informal atmosphere. We invite you all to participate in this event.
