Rolf R. Hainich is an experienced researcher with a focus on Augmented Reality and other related fields. His career covers academic and industrial R&D (real time computer networking and processing, media technology, optics, and sensors). He was chief consultant in public R&D funding programs, engaged in venture capital, supervised several high tech companies. Beginning in the early 90's, he developed his ideas on augmented reality with an emphasis on virtual devices, wrote papers and studies, which included "Integrative 3D Visualization", 1994, already outlining the full spectrum of AR. In 2006 he published the 1st edition of the book "The End of Hardware", centered mainly on the technologies required for AR, and possible solutions. In 2009, the 3rd edition was released.







Oliver Bimber became head of the Institute of Computer Graphics at Johannes Kepler University Linz in October 2009. From 2003-2010 he served as a Junior Professor of Augmented Reality at the Media System Science Department of Bauhaus-University Weimar. He received a Ph.D. (2002) in Engineering from Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany, and a Habilitation degree (2007) in Computer Science (Informatik) at Munich University of Technology. Bimber co-authored the book "Spatial Augmented Reality" with Ramesh Raskar (MIT). His research interests include visual computing, real-time rendering and visualization, computer vision, image analysis and processing, optics, and human visual perception in the context of next-generation display and imaging technologies.
