Subject: [cs-ugrads] Intel Lab Open House today!
To: cs-grads@cs.washington.edu, cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu
Just a reminder that the Intel research lab has an open house today. It’s located on the 6th floor of the building at the corner of 45th and 11th, just a short walk through the rain. You’ll be able to see some very cool demos showing work that’s been done by many of your fellow grad and undergrad students. Among others, we’ll show a robot playing chess, an interactive Lego playing system, interactive 3D mapping, and 3D Avatar-like virtual flythroughs of the lab.
And, there’ll be food!! So please stop by any time between 3pm and 6pm.
Cheers,Dieter
| Open House at Intel Labs Seattle on Monday, November 1, 2010 |
| – Monday, November 1, 3:00 – 6:00 p.m. |
|
The lab is located on the 6th floor of 1100 NE 45th St, Seattle, three blocks from the main University of Washington campus. The open house will include posters and demonstrations of key research projects, opportunities to meet researchers, students and faculty, and refreshments.
Founded in 2001, Intel Labs Seattle is an exploratory research lab that is part of the Academic Programs and Research arm of Intel Labs. We are a center of excellence in Context-Aware Sensor-Driven Systems. Our researchers develop techniques that enable computer systems to be fully aware of their environments and to interact seamlessly with their users. We drive this agenda from a user-centered viewpoint, forming interdisciplinary projects, creating prototypes of novel devices and systems, and evaluating use in realistic settings. Our lab is based on an innovative model of industry-university research that includes a deep collaborative relationship with the nearby University of Washington, as well as Intel product groups. Our research staff is recognized as leaders in sensing and wireless devices, robotics, mobile networks and systems, computer vision, artificial intelligence, and human-computer interaction. During the last year, ILS researchers have worked on topics that include: sensing, vision and perception for context awareness; depth-cameras for 3D modeling and interaction; sensor systems that preserve user privacy; game playing robot manipulators; and wirelessly powered devices. This year’s open house will display these projects and more. |
| We look forward to welcoming you in November!
