INVITE 2012 - International Workshop on Network-based Virtual Reality and Tele-existence (INVITE'2012)

International Workshop on Network-based
Virtual Reality and Tele-existence (INVITE'2012)
(http://www.sb.soft.iwate-pu.ac.jp/NBiS2012/invite2...)
in conjunction with
The 14 the International Conference on Network-Based Information Systems
(NBiS'2012)
(http://www.takilab.org/conf/nbis/2012/)
Melbourne, Australia, September 26-28, 2012
SCOPE
As advent of high-speed network and grid computing technologies, virtual reality environment distributed over gigabit network has been shared to construct a huge shared space where many new applications including Tele-medicine, space and industrial design, entertainment, virtual museum, 3D-shopping, etc. are realized using computer graphics device, huge computing power and human sensing devices.
The INVITE’2012 is the seventh international workshop and will serve as a forum for the exchange of information and ideas regarding with Network-based Virtual Reality and Tele-existence. The INVITE’2012 is will be held in conjunction with International Conference on Network-Based Information Systems (NBiS’2012) Melbourne, Australia. We invite you to participate in the INVITE’2012 workshop and submit papers on the research, development and applications on topics related to network-based virtual reality and Tele-existence. Since the field of VR is still evolving, the scope of the conference is broad. Among the areas that INVITE’2012 will cover are :
Software Architectures for Network-based VR
Tools and Techniques for Modeling Network VR Systems
Distributed VR Systems
VR Interaction and Navigation Techniques
Tele-presence and Telemedicine
Spatial 3D Audio
Motion Tracking
VR Input and Output Devices
Innovative Applications of VR
Human Factors of VR
Evaluation of VR Techniques and Systems
