We believe that the Vision Interface program this year contains many excellent papers, and wish to thank the all the authors for their submissions. Each paper was referred by three reviewers, and based on their evaluations we accepted 34 high quality papers for oral presentation. We also wish to thank the referees for their excellent work.

The papers cover a variety of topics, and along with the three invited papers we are sure there will be something of interest for everyone. We are proud of the fact that about half the papers are from Canada and the other half are international; in fact from twelve different countries.
