====== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION AND CONTRIBUTION ================== WEB3D 2014 -- 19th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON 3D WEB TECHNOLOGY When : 8-10 August, 2014 Where: Vancouver Convention Center, Vancouver URL : http://www.web3d2014.org Co-located with SIGGRAPH 2014 ===== PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: APRIL 2ND ==================== The Web3D 2014 conference will bring together academic and industry leaders in the 3D space to share state of the art 3D applications in industry, business and research. The three-day gathering will consist of keynotes from visionaries in the field, papers, tutorials, workshops and panels discussions on hot 3D topics. *** Paper submission deadline: April 2, 2014 *** Author notification: May 11, 2014 *** Camera-ready due: June 1, 2014 Tutorials and Workshop submission deadline: Coming soon The 19th annual ACM International Web3D Conference is the next major event that gathers researchers, developers, entrepreneurs, experimenters, artists, and content creators in a dynamic environment focused on advancing the frontiers of Web-based 3D graphics. *** This year's event will be co-located with SIGGRAPH 2014 in the beautiful *** city of Vancouver. The conference includes research into the enabling technology of web-aware, interactive 3D graphics from mobile devices up to high-end immersive environments and the use of ubiquitous multi-media use across a wide range of applications and environments from cultural heritage, eHealth, transportation, industry and manufacturing, education, and tourism. For the Web3D 2014 edition, we welcome works addressing the emerging opportunities and research into portable, integrated information spaces over the web. Topics may include, but are not limited to: · Scalable and interoperable representations and modeling methods for complex geometry, structure, and behaviors through client and server methods · 3D search, shape matching and indexing · Scientific and medical visualization · 3D content creation and analysis tools and pipelines · Streaming and rendering of large-scale models, animations and virtual worlds · Distributed virtual environments and collaboration · Web-wide human-computer interaction and 3D User Interfaces · 3D City Models & Web3D, Geo-visualization · Mixed and Augmented Reality (including standardization aspects) · Agents, animated humanoids, and complex reactive characters · Interactive Web 3D applications in all applications and sectors PROGRAM COMMITTEE General Chairs: Nicholas F.
