In case of multiple submissions, the Program Committee reserves the right to allow only one oral presentation per author group while transferring the others to the poster session. During the Symposium, authors are expected to attend their respective sessions to enable interaction with the audience. Unless otherwise requested by authors, authors and abstracts will be posted at http://www.thermosense.org
Monday Evening Exhibitor Vendor Session
What’s New in Infrared Imaging Hardware and Software
(Presentations by equipment and service vendors)
This session is now in its sixth year and has become very popular. This venue provides an early opportunity for exhibitors to showcase their latest technology and products to the Thermosense and IR community prior to the opening of the exhibit. This enables the technical conference attendees can better prioritize their activities when visiting the exhibits. It is a casual meeting with ample time for questions and answers.
Your company must be an exhibitor at DSS10 to be part of this event. If you are interested in participating, or have more questions, please contact:
G. Raymond Peacock rpeacock@temperatures.com
or
Herbert Kaplan hkaplan@earthlink.net
Annual Infrared Imaging Gallery
Chairs: Jennifer L. Myers, StingRay Optics, LLC; Ralph B. Dinwiddie, Oak Ridge National Lab.
An open invitation to all participants in the 2010 SPIE DSS Conference and Exhibit to submit images demonstrating professional applications, artistic renditions, unique or creative depictions employing infrared cameras and lenses are welcome and encouraged. Submissions should include the photographers name, organization, contact information, Image Title and a brief description of the image highlighting the challenges behind the results. All images should be formatted to a maximum size of 20″ x 16″. Additional information on the viewing location as well as judging of the images will be available on http://www.thermosense.org
Student Poster and Poster Briefing Session
Chairs: Jonathan J. Miles, James Madison Univ. and Jeff R. Brown, Hope College
ThermoSense XXXI will again feature a Student Poster Session. The session is intended to promote awareness of, and encourage undergraduate and graduate research pertaining to, the ThermoSense conference. The oral sessions are open to students who wish to present their work as a manuscript for oral presentation. In order to take part in the Student Poster Session: (1) an abstract must be submitted electronically to SPIE via the web on or before the SPIE abstract due date of 21 September 2009 (a Tracking Number will be forwarded after submission); then (2) the abstract must be e-mailed to the session chair, Jonathan Miles, at milesjj@jmu.edu with the paper confirmation tracking number (i.e. DSS10-DS101-XX); (3) the lead author must be a student; and (4) the student author must commit to attending the symposium and presenting his or her poster.
