We present an approach for unobtrusive mobile telecollaboration that leverages physical and virtual environments, supporting rich interaction by using computer vision-based tracking and mapping, along with augmented reality techniques to convey spatial information about a novel scene. This allows for rich interaction among remote collaborators, useful in a wide range of applications from mission-critical field service repairs to helping a friend or relative program the DVR.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;\nmso-bidi-font-family:Calibri;color:black\"><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>ABOUT THE PRESENTER:<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;\nmso-bidi-font-family:Calibri;color:black\">Matthew Turk is a Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he co-directs the UCSB Four Eyes Lab, focused on the &#8220;four I&#8217;s&#8221; of Imaging, Interaction, and Innovative Interfaces.
