Current state of virtual and augmented reality technologies pushed the boundaries between our every-day reality and mixed one to limits that make them hard to be distinguished. Our daily phone call, email, meeting, booking or daily action is registered in Internet of Thinks in a way or another, is assisted by bots from Cloud or better (or worst) is done in our place by electronic services, to make “our life better”.

The aim of the 1st Edition of ADMIRE workshop is to bring together the young researchers, PhD students, in the field of virtual and augmented reality and to make them collaborate and put the current technology at work to obtain “a better world”.
