2. A complete list of equipment and physical space needed is required. Authors must provide their own equipment. Space may be limited. Demonstrations with headphones are recommended.

3. If the demonstration is related to a paper submitted to WASPAA, authors should specify the paper ID.

4. At least one author of each accepted demonstration is required to register for WASPAA.
