The auction process for CVPR 2017 attendee giveaways, including t-shirts, water bottles, tote bags, pens, and lanyards is starting today and will continue until May 29th. This year we will be using a web-based auction site and the bidding process should be relatively familiar if you've used online auction sites. In particular, you can set a maximum bid and allow the system to automatically bid for you. The link to the auction is:

In addition to the giveaways which are available on the website, we will be adding opportunities to sponsor awards, such as best paper and best student paper. We expect those opportunities to be available in the next week or so.
