1st INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON MULTISENSORY AUGMENTED REALITY (MAR 2021)

The 1st International Workshop on Multisensory Augmented Reality (MAR2021) will be held on 31 August 2021 in conjunction with INTERACT 2021, Bari, Italy (30th Aug - 3rd Sept 2021), immediately preceding the main conference.

MOTIVATION
Multisensory Augmented Reality enables content creators to deliver more realistic, sensory-rich user experiences. Applications and research related to multisensory augmented reality expand through several areas such as education, medicine, human-machine interactions, human-food interactions, marketing, and smart cities. This workshop aims to gather researchers and industry representatives involved in multisensory augmented reality research to discuss the current state-of-the-art in the field, future research directions, new collaboration opportunities, and future publication plans.

TOPICS
We invite researchers, industry experts, and visionaries to submit their latest results, concepts, and reviews of state of the art on any relevant aspects of Multisensory Augmented Reality. Contributions of more fundamental nature are welcome as well as more technical contributions. Position papers and reviews of the state-of-the-art and ongoing late-breaking research works are also invited. Submissions do not necessarily have to cover the AR aspects, but papers on additional modalities including smell, taste, and haptics are suited and highly encouraged.

Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
* Multisensory Augmented Reality interfaces
* Applications of multisensory AR and technologies
* Sensing and Actuation Technologies for visual, tactile/haptic, sonic, taste, and smell related to AR
* Multisensory interaction, interfaces, and communication
* Multimodal / Crossmodal perception in AR
* Multisensory VR Applications
* Smart wearable technology related to Multisensory AR
* Multisensory AR based digital and sensory marketing
* Multisensory AR in Human-Food Interaction
* Multisensory Internet Applications
* Content creation processes, environments and methods in Multisensory AR
* Communication protocols for multisensory AR
* VR for art therapy
