Aspects of near-eye display for XR applications: Society for Information Display Mid-Europe Chapter summer online conference
On 11 July 11 2024 at15:00 CEST, the newly elected officers of the Society for Information Display Mid-Europe Chapter (SID-MEC) will meet for their first conference, which will be held as an online meeting. SID-MEC is the Central European branch of the Society for Information Display (SID).
SID-MEC is the Central European branch of the Society for Information Display (SID). It covers most European countries from Eastern Europe (e.g., Latvia) to Western Europe (e.g., Portugal), yet Southern and Northern Europe too (except those European countries with own regional chapters, such as France and UK/Ireland). SID is the worldwide largest association of scientists, developers, and companies in the electronic and information display domain.
The new Officer Board consists of Dr. Uwe Vogel (Chair), Fraunhofer IPMS; Dr. Mark Goebel (Vice-Chair), Merck Electronics; Prof Dr Rigo Herold (Secretary), Westsächsische Hochschule Zwickau; Dr. Yohan Kim (Treasurer), Fraunhofer IAP.
Displays include any device that enables image display, such as smartphone displays, projectors, AR/VR smart glasses, televisions, or display devices in automation technology. The conferences, which are held regularly, present the current scientific state of the art concerning displays. Topics range from material science, interfaces and manufacturing to applications of displays. The focus of the summer online meeting is on AR/VR applications with mobile devices such as smart glasses. There will be emphasis on exchange and interaction amongst speakers and participants.
Topics and keynote speakers:
LBS-based all-day wearable smart-glasses
Peter Ostertag, Bosch Sensortec
HIDO - Holographically integrated display and optics
Ivo Vieira, LusoVU
Addressing eyestrain and fatigue in stereoscopic near-eye displays
Roberts Zabels, Lightspace Technologies
