Ubiquitous Mixed Reality
Workshop at Mensch und Computer 2024, Karlsruhe, Germany
Overview
Mixed Reality (MR), characterized by the seamless integration of virtual and physical worlds across diverse contexts and devices, presents a paradigm shift in HCI. Experts predict that MR technology will become ubiquitous and will replace the smartphone in future. In case ubiquitous MR will be widely available and used in everyday contexts as we use the smartphone nowadays, it is crucial to think about opportunities and positive effects on the one hand, but also about challenges such as risks and dangers that need to be overcome on the other. This workshop aims to foster interdisciplinary discussions and collaborations to address the multifaceted challenges and opportunities associated with ubiquitous MR. The workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners to delve into the various facets of ubiquitous MR and its implications for society, technology, and beyond.
Call for Participation
We invite researchers and practitioners to participate in the Workshop on Ubiquitous Mixed Reality: Unveiling Opportunities and Challenges on Sunday September 1st which will be co-located with Mensch und Computer (MuC) 2024 in Karlsruhe, Germany on September 1-4, 2024. Participants will have the opportunity to present their work, engage in discussions, and network with peers and experts in the field. We seek papers describing original research, work in progress, as well as novel applications and systems from all areas mixed reality, virtual reality and augmented reality used in everyday contexts. The workshop focuses on opportunities and challenges related to ubiquitous MR and provides a platform for discussions spanning the MR and HCI research communities.
Topics of Interests include but are not limited to:
Applications and use cases for Ubiquitous MR
UX in Ubiquitous MR
Future trends and directions in ubiquitous MR research and development
Technological infrastructure requirements for widespread MR deployment
Altered realities and bodies (e.g., Avatars and Virtual Humans)
Social acceptance of MR usage
Ethical considerations and societal implications
Privacy and security implications of ubiquitous MR
