Abstract:
It is our pleasure to present the proceedings of the Symposium on Applied Perception (ACM SAP) held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, August 8-9, 2014. ACM SAP, formerly known as APGV, aims to advance and promote research that crosses the boundaries between perception and disciplines such as graphics, visualization, vision, haptics and acoustics. Our eleventh annual event includes exciting new research from all of these disciplines. We held the ACM SAP 2014 conference immediately prior to the SIGGRAPH conference as is customary for every even year of ACM SAP. By doing so, we hope to further promote communication between the core perception and computer graphics communities.
The changing of the name to SAP was intended to broaden the scope of the conference and to encourage representation from all aspects of applied perception. We believe that this goal was again met this year. We were delighted to see a number of submissions that included auditory, haptic, and vestibular perception, in addition to the many papers investigating applied visual perception. We had 50 papers submitted for the SAP conference and 23 (16 long and 7 short) of those were accepted through reviews from at least three members of the International Program Committee. Bernhard Riecke also served as Poster's Chair and selected twelve submissions to be included in the meeting both as posters and flash forward presentations.
