“It is often better to show than to tell” is a common mantra when attempting to convey ideas. ISWC demonstrations allow attendees to interact directly with prototypes described in the papers and in up-and-coming work in the field.
A relatively new tradition, the doctoral consortium supports both early and experienced students in their research by providing feedback from their peers and experts in the wearable computing field. This year, the doctoral consortium occurs before the main ISWC program, but the students are requested to present posters on their work so that all attendees may get a preview of what these students are investigating.
A popular attraction, the gadget show gives attendees one minute to demonstrate cool or intriguing devices they have created, bought, or modified. To have your own 1-minute of fame, just come to the gadget show and get in line with your device!
Businesses and academic institutions exhibit their wares throughout the conference. See what is new and get some hands-on wearable computing experience.
