| The Birth of ICAST... |
|
The first ICAST Workshop was held at York University, December 4 - 5, 2006, with financial and administrative support from Precarn Incorporated and York University. Thirty-five participants from universities, clinics and industry spent two days discussing ways of improving the development of assistive technologies of all types. The meeting was chaired by John Tsotsos (York University) with assistance from a Canada-wide steering group consisting of Gary Birch (Neil Squire Society), Jim Little (University of British Columbia), Alan Mackworth (University of British Columbia), and Alex Mihailidis (University of Toronto). Credit is due to Alan Mackworth who came up with the idea for this workshop. The end result was unanimous agreement for the creation of the ICAST R&D Network.
