Gwangju, Korea, September 4 -6, 2013
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’2013 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’2013 is will be held in conjunction with International Conference on Network-Based Information Systems (NBiS’2013) Gwangju, Korea. 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’2013 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
