Symposium on Visual Computing and Perception

June 7-8, 2017

TU Braunschweig, Germany

Computer graphics, vision, and psychophysics form a scientific triad whose interdisciplinary research is about to fundamentally change the way we drive our cars, watch movies, play games, communicate with one another and computers, socially interact, learn, live. In six distinguished lectures, some of the most renowned scientists in these fields will share their view on what has already been accomplished, which challenges still lie ahead, and what we may expect in the future.

The symposium is intended to bring together all scientific communities interested in visual computing and perception, to stir everyone's imagination, and to foster exciting new research between graphics, vision, and perception.

Distinguished lecturers:

Michael Bach: Imaging in our brain – Optical illusions neither “trick the eye” nor “fool the brain”

Heinrich Bülthoff: Perceptual Graphics: closing the loop between Perception, Graphics and Computer Vision

Jan Koenderink: Construction of the mirror-world

Erik Reinhard: High dynamic range imaging: A soon-to-be-successful example of industry adoption

Bernt Schiele: Computer Vision: Progress in the Last Decade and Open Problems

Hans-Peter Seidel: 3D Image Analysis and Synthesis -- The World Inside the Computer
