Ubiquitous MR for Urban Transport

Yesterday (11th July 2007), I presented an invited poster with title ‘Ubiquitous Mixed Reality for Urban Transport’ to an event organised by London Technology Network (LTN) at One St George Street, Westminster, London. The theme of the event was ‘Developing an Integrated Sustainable Transport System’ aiming at assessing the latest advancements in energy, materials and modelling for transport. An overview of the poster I presented is shown below, illustrating how ubiquitous mixed reality technologies can be used to assist companies and governmental organisations perform efficient urban transport planning and provide advanced services.

The objective of the event was to blend together participants coming from academy, government and industry using seminars (presentations), showcases (posters) and networking sessions (one-to-one meetings). Numerous academic posters presented state-of-the-art research solutions for future transport systems including both engineering and computer science disciplines. The most characteristic areas covered mechanical solutions, robotics and electronics, mobile computing, computer vision and mixed reality applications.
