AR Visioning Workshop (July 31 to August 3, 2018)
NOTE: For more information see the published report that resulted from this workshop: Anticipating Widespread Augmented Reality: Insights from the 2018 AR Visioning Workshop, it is published through the University of Central Florida's STARS (Showcase of Text, Archives, Research & Scholarship) website.
We invite you to participate in the first AR Visioning Workshop, which will take place Tuesday, July 31st (Monday evening arrival) through Friday, August 3rd, 2018 at Airlie, which is located in rural Warrenton, Virginia. While easily accessible from the Washington DC Metropolitan area this resort offers a serene, distraction-free atmosphere for our workshop. Please see the attached resort material for more information on the meeting location, or browse their website.
The workshop will focus on what today we typically call "Augmented Reality" and "Mixed Reality," without limiting our thinking to today’s terminology and technology. We will attempt to look ahead 5, 20, and 50 years, both broadly at fundamental aspects of the associated phenomena, and contextualized in various applications of the phenomena, potentially including (but not limited to) defense, emergency response, healthcare, assistive technology, and every-day citizen use. Activities will include brief individual informal presentations, full workshop and sub-group discussions, ideation, reflection, etc. Application-specific discussion will take place in self-selected sub-groups so that attendees can choose areas of personal interest/passion. We expect that some discussions will continue into (take place in) the evening at various locations around the resort. Meals and meeting refreshments are included in the cost of the workshop. Alcoholic beverages and snacks will be available for separate individual purchase in the bar at the main Airlie House, and can then be taken anywhere on the grounds.
