Final Call for Papers
IDW ’21 - The 28th International Display Workshops
December 1-3, 2021
Virtual Conference
https://www.idw.or.jp/

FEATURES
IDW consists of workshops technically categorized into specialized domains playing important roles in the information display technology and its application. Each workshop organizes its own sessions, which consist of oral presentations by invited/contributing
speakers and lightning talks. The conference will be held in a virtual format. Presenters and attendees can discuss via video/audio ortext chat tools. The proceedings of IDW ’21 and recorded session videos will be available both during and after the conference untillate January 2022. In addition, a few months after the conference, the proceedings will be provided as an online open-access archiveand each paper will be given a unique DOI (Digital Object Identifier).

VIRTUAL CONFERENCEREGISTRATION FEES

The IDW ’21 as a virtual conference, which was very much acclaimed last year, will be further enhanced this year. The advantage of virtual conferences is not just that attractive presentations can be viewed easily through the internet without
travelling far. Seamless access from the presentation sessions
using Zoom to the breakout room as “Extended live Q&A” will
be provided, where the speakers can not only discuss details but
also demonstrate their own promotions. And to encouragequestions and answers, a chat system like SNS provides fruitful
discussions without worrying about the time difference.
Furthermore, optional discussion sessions called “Enhanced
Discussion” will be planned, where a detailed explanation of
the presentation and a demonstration using Zoom will be held.
We look forward to your submissions.
