Dates

  • preliminary registration: email to Martin Bauer
  • preliminary discussion: Juli 16, 2004, 10:00am c.t., MI 02.13.007
    there will be a live-demo of an augmented reality system
  • weekly seminar: Monday, 1:00pm - 3:00pm , MI 01.07.014

Literature

One goal of the seminar is the autonomous study of the literature. Introductory literature will be provided by the supervisor

Requirements

  • extraordinary motivation
  • presentation about 45min
  • handout about 10-20 pages (in LaTeX-format - a template can be found here)
  • active attendance
  • autonomous literature studies
  • additional to the description of the idea and the algorithms we expect the students to present the advantages and disadvantages of the technique and their application domain
  • matlab and maple live demos are highly appreciated
