The IEEE ISMAR Steering Committee (SC) is seeking three new members to serve in the committee. These roles offer an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of the premier international conference on Mixed and Augmented Reality, with significant influence on both conference organization and community development.
Applicants should have:
A strong track record of publications in Mixed and Augmented Reality or closely related fields (including Virtual Reality).
Demonstrated engagement with the ISMAR or VR community through previous conference involvement or related activities.
A clear commitment to advancing the field and contributing to the growth of the XR community.
The appointment is for a 3-year term, with the possibility to re-apply for another 3-year term.
Applicants who cannot commit themselves for three years cannot be considered for appointment.
Interested candidates are invited to submit a short CV indicating that they have already published and contributed to the ISMAR or VR community, as well as a letter of motivation of no more than one page, also indicating which tasks they would be willing to take on or whether they would be open to any position on the Steering Committee.
Besides self-nominations, the Steering Committee will also approach suitable candidates directly.
We would like to clarify that the existing members (in these or other positions) of the current Steering Committee can also apply for the open positions, as long as they have not yet been elected to positions twice in a row.
Deadline for Applications: July 31, 2026
Applications should be sent to the IEEE ISMAR Steering Committee at chairs.steering@ismar.net.
The SC will review all applications and make decisions on the new members within 4 weeks of the deadline.
Selected members will begin their roles in Early October 2026.
We look forward to welcoming new members passionate about shaping the future of ISMAR and contributing to its ongoing success as the leading conference in Mixed and Augmented Reality.
