Call for Participation

We welcome contributions and perspectives on (but not limited to):

• Multi-user identification & behavioral sensing
  – Gait, posture, gestures, gaze, physiological or environmental sensing

• Social & contextual dynamics in shared environments
  – Collaboration, coordination, competition, attention, bystanders

• Balancing personalization vs. collective experience
  – Negotiating conflicting preferences, visibility, and priorities

• Ethics, inclusion, and privacy-aware design of smart spaces
  – Transparency of sensing, bystander rights, accessibility, equity

• Emerging modalities & platforms
  – XR, CAVEs, robotics, multi-display environments, smart homes, classrooms, public spaces

We invite interested participants to submit either a short motivation statement (300–500 words) or a 1–2 page position paper outlining their prior work, perspective, or research interest related to multi-user immersive smart spaces. Submissions will be reviewed for relevance, diversity of viewpoints, and potential to foster rich discussion. Participants who wish to give a lightning talk may also include a brief abstract. Accepted participants will be contacted with further details and asked about any accessibility needs to ensure an inclusive workshop experience.
