CMSC 2012 - Call for Papers
Coordinate Metrology Systems Conference: The World's Premier Event for 3D Metrology Technology Professionals
CMSC is holding its 28th annual technical conference and exhibition in New Orleans in July 2012. This technical conference focusing on portable 3D coordinate measurement metrology, provides a professional venue where ideas, concepts and theory flow freely among participants from around the world. Unlike a typical trade show, the focus at CMSC is on education through various technical presentations and workshops. The educational atmosphere encourages attendees to network and learn about the latest innovations in the field of portable 3D industrial measurement technologies and is a great opportunity to share your expertise with your colleagues.
Having attended and participated in CMSC for many years, Michael Raphael, our president, is serving as the coordinator of the CMSC Technical Presentations and Workshops.
You can find the complete details of the call for papers on the CMSC website. In the meantime, if you have any questions, or potential topics for presentations, feel free to contact Michael Raphael at presentations@cmsc.org and see www.cmsc.org for much more.
