VRST 2018 CALL FOR PAPERS
[https:]]
The ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and Technology (VRST) is the premier international symposium for the presentation of new research results, systems, and techniques among researchers and developers concerned with augmented, virtual and mixed reality
(AR/VR/MR, XR for short) software and technology.
VRST brings together the main international research groups working on XR, along with many of the world’s leading companies that provide or utilize XR systems. VRST 2018 will be held in Tokyo, Japan, hosted by Waseda University, from Wednesday, Nov. 28th to Saturday, Dec. 1st, 2018. The event is sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and SIGGRAPH.
VRST 2018 welcomes submissions of research papers that relate (but not limited) to topics given below.
– XR technology and devices
– Advanced display technologies and immersive projection technologies
– Low-latency and high-performance XR
– Multi-user and distributed XR
– XR software infrastructures
– XR authoring systems
– HCI for XR
– Real-time techniques for XR
– Haptics, smell and taste
– Computer graphics techniques for XR
– Computer vision techniques for XR
– Modeling and simulation
– AI approaches for XR
– XR applications
Submissions in other related areas are also welcome. See the symposium website for more details: [https:]]
Authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 10 pages for full papers and 4 pages for short papers, both with 2-column “teaser” figures on the first page. All submissions must be in English. All accepted papers will be published in the Symposium Proceedings and will be included in the ACM Digital Library (EI-indexed). Papers and poster abstracts should be prepared using the “sigconf” ACM template style. ACM article templates (LaTeX and Word) are available from: [www.acm.org]
VRST uses a double-blind review process. Therefore, submissions and supporting materials (e.g., videos) should not contain information (including citations) that unnecessarily identifies the authors or their institutions or places of work. All submissions must be made electronically as PDF files. Authors are encouraged to submit videos to aid the program committee in the review of their submissions, but should make sure all necessary codecs are included.
Extended versions of two or three best papers from VRST 2018 will be invited to resubmit to IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics.
We also invite submissions of Poster and Demo papers (2 pages). We particularly encourage industrial researchers, startups, and researchers early in their careers to submit. Accepted Poster and Demo papers will be published in the Symposium Proceedings and will be included in the ACM Digital Library.
Papers, posters, and demos must be submitted through the online submission site:
