ACM EYE TRACKING RESEARCH & APPLICATIONS SYMPOSIUM 2020 CALL FOR VIDEO & 
DEMO SUBMISSIONS



=========================================================



Have a gaze interaction technique to share? Want to show off how your 
new eye tracking method works? Or want to discuss your study setup with 
other eye tracking researchers? At ETRA 2020, we will have a Demo & 
Video session, during which researchers give demonstrations of their 
research or show videos of their work. We encourage new and exciting 
ideas that may not yet be fully tested. To take part in this session, we 
request an extended abstract (2 pages + 1 additional page for 
references) to be submitted.



If authors have a full paper accepted, no extended abstract is needed. 
If submitting a video presentation, a video with audio is required. For 
demos, we also require that a video with audio is submitted for review. 
See below on how to submit.



=========================================================



IMPORTANT DATES (Time Zone: AoE)



Demo/Video



Mar 06, 2020    Authors: Extended abstracts due



Mar 20, 2020    Feedback: Notifications due to authors



Apr 02, 2020    Authors: Camera ready papers due



=========================================================



SUBMISSION TO THE VIDEO & DEMO TRACK



To submit to the Video & Demo Track, you need to prepare an extended 
abstract (2 pages + 1 additional page for references), and a video 
submission. Note: for demos we also require a video showing the 
demonstration. This video will be used for reviewing purposes. Only 
submissions of type video will be played at the conference. However, 
demo submissions might be accepted as a video in case they lack 
demonstrability.



Detailed instructions are available below. In case you have a full paper 
accepted and would like to present a video or demo related to the paper, 
please enter the accepted paper number into the submission form.



The extended abstract will be part of the ETRA 2020 proceedings. 
Copyright of the work will be held by the authors.



A good extended abstract should:

1.	Fall under the topics mentioned for the ETRA 2020 conference.

2.	Motivate the use cases of the work.

3.	Describe the novelty of the tool/method and how it relates to other 
work.

4.	Describe any inner workings of the tool/method as necessary.

5.	Describe experiences gained in developing the tool/method.



Submissions to the Video & Demo Track will be juried by the Video & Demo 
chairs. We follow the CHI Selection Process of juried content 
(https://chi2020.acm.org/authors/selection-processes/), which means a 
less rigorous process and light feedback.



=========================================================



ABSTRACT PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS



Abstracts should be 2 pages + 1 additional page for references in length 
and should follow preparation instructions found at: 
http://www.siggraph.org/learn/instructions-authors. To prepare the 
content of the PDF file, SIGGRAPH encourages authors to use LaTeX.



When generating the PDF file, please make sure that the fonts are 
embedded in the PDF file. This will ensure that reviewers can view the 
paper without problems. The submitted abstracts should not be anonymized 
for peer review. In addition to the extended abstract, you will be asked 
to submit a video.



=========================================================



VIDEO PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS



The video should depict your technology in action and we encourage 
researchers to explain in the video a) the motivation for their work, b) 
the specific problem being addressed, and c) the demonstrated solution 
to the problem. Note that the video should be self-explaining, no 
in-person explanation of the videos should be necessary at the 
conference. We highly encourage videos to either include an audio track 
and discourage the use of background audio or music. If you feel 
uncomfortable recording your own voice, check the web for a 
text-to-speech tool to generate your audio commentary. The video should 
include a title slide with the title of the work, authors, affiliations, 
etc. at the start of the video. A submitted video should have a maximum 
length of 5 minutes and should not be larger than 100 MB. We recommend 
using MP4 format with H.264 codec and a resolution of 1280 x 720 px, at 
24 to 30 frames/s. Most video production systems can encode in this 
format and most video applications are able to play it. If you use a 
different codec, you risk that reviewers might not be able to view the 
video clip and you will need to re-encode the video clip for the 
conference proceeding USB. The video should play in the VLC media player 
version 3.0 (freely available at https://www.videolan.org/vlc) without 
additional software, codecs or settings.



For a longer guideline of how to make good videos for conference 
submission, please see the UIST video guidelines.
