So for speakers this month Peter's going to talk about "a pretty cool paper .... about doing video augmentation using stereoscopic feature extraction." As per tradition, I'm going with the "lets just show up in a room and hopefully it's not booked" routine. So meeting place is @ UVic in ECS 130 at 7PM on Tuesday Sep 2nd, 2008. If for some reason that room doesn't work (ie if it's already booked, etc) then our backup room will be ECS 104 (which IIRC is the opposite end of the 1st floor of ECS). So to recap: Date: Tuesday, Sep 2nd 2008 Time: 7PM Place: UVic - ECS 130 Of course, if there's anything else someone wants to present, I'm always open to suggestions (either for this meeting or future ones). Read an interesting paper? Seen a cool new technology? Why not come give a talk for RCSS about it and share your wisdom with like-minded computer geeks. :p See you all tomorrow! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Recreational Computer Science Society" group.
