*** Call for Research and Application Sketches ***

The VR 2007 sketches (or "short papers") program provides a forum to present the latest applications and research developments in all areas of virtual reality, augmented and mixed reality, and 3D user interfaces. Sketches can provide overviews of newly-fielded VR systems or first looks at new research results. Sketches will be peer-reviewed and published in the regular proceedings.

Research and Application Sketches must be in English, not exceed four
(4) pages in length and be formatted using the IEEE Computer Society format described at http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Tasks/camera.html. IEEE VR uses a double-blind review process. Submissions should not contain information (including citations and optional videos) that unnecessarily identifies the authors or their institutions or places of work. All papers must be submitted electronically. Authors who do not have web access should contact one of the research sketches chairs listed below.

Authors may also submit videos to aid the program committee in the review of their submissions. Videos must be submitted following the instructions at the conference website. Videos submitted with research sketches will automatically be considered for possible inclusion in the video proceedings.

*** Call for Videos ***

We invite participants to submit videos showing the results of VR-related research or applications, including efforts from 3D user interfaces and mixed or augmented reality. Videos describing work in a submitted paper are welcome. However, videos can also be submitted independently of a paper submission. Selected videos will be included in the Video Proceedings.

Videos must be narrated in English, should stand on their own and not exceed 5 minutes in length. Each video must be accompanied by a one-page description including the title, a 200-word abstract, references, acknowledgements, and contact information with author names, affiliations and an email address for the lead author.

*** For more information, or details on video submission, contact the Video Chair:
Chadwick Wingrave, Virginia Tech

*** Call for Panels ***

Lively discussions incorporating differing points of view help focus attention on significant and/or controversial topics. Interested parties are invited to submit proposals for interactive panel sessions with the goal of addressing a specific VR or related topic from several perspectives. Panel sessions should not be structured as a series of individual stand-alone presentations but rather should address debatable material that is presented in a lively manner. The goal should be to involve all panel participants and engage the total audience.

Panel proposals should be submitted electronically and should include a title for the panel session, a brief description of the overall issues to be discussed (roughly 250 words each), and the names, contact information and short (roughly 100 words) biographies for the organizer and each panelist. Panelists should come from multiple organizations.

*** For more information, to inquire about a particular panel topic, or to submit a proposal contact the Panels Chairs:
Benjamin Lok, University of Florida
Tobias Höllerer, University of California, Santa Barbara vr-panelschairs@ieee.org


*** Call for Workshops ***

Full-day workshops are intended to bring together researchers, developers, and users for a lively discussion of issues and an informal exchange of ideas and information. Workshops may target a specific application area, a specific research area, or a topic of general interest. We invite individuals or teams interested in presenting such a workshop to submit proposals.

Workshop proposals should be submitted electronically and should include a title, a brief topic description (approximately 250 words), and the names, contact information and brief biographies (roughly 100
words) of the workshop organizers. The proposal should also identify the intended audience, its size, and all technical requirements, including space, audio/visual, computer, and communication needs, etc.

*** For more information, or to submit a proposal, please contact the Workshop Chairs:
Dirk Reiners, Iowa State University
Nicholas Polys, Virginia Tech

*** Call for Tutorials ***

Learning and sharing knowledge are at the heart of our success. Interested parties are invited to submit proposals for full-day or half-day tutorials to be presented on March 10 or 11. Proposed tutorials may address topics of interest to the VR, mixed or augmented reality, or 3D user interface communities, and may be at an introductory or advanced level.

Proposals for tutorials should be submitted electronically and should include a title for the tutorial, proposed length, a brief description of the topics to be addressed (roughly 250 words), the level and intended audience, and the names, contact information and a short biography (roughly 100 words each) for the proposed instructors.
Proposals are welcome on topics that have been previously addressed; new approaches or insights are especially valued. Submissions should include a statement saying how proposals differ from recent topics that were similar.

*** Call for Research Demonstrations ***

We seek research demonstrations from laboratories or research groups (academic, government, or industrial). Demos should interest the broad VR community and be presentable in a conference setting.

Accepted research demonstrations will be invited to participate in an exhibition of new and innovative work. The conference will provide basic infrastructure for the demos. In addition, authors of accepted demonstrations will have a time slot in the Research Demonstration Session to communicate more generally information about the specific demo and other work being performed at the lab. Proposals for research demonstrations should be submitted by email to the research demonstration chairs. Proposals should include a one-page description of the demo and the set up, as well as a one-page description of the research lab itself (no more than two pages total).

*** For more information or to submit a proposal contact the Research Demonstration Chairs:
Robert Lindeman, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Joseph Gabbard, Virginia Tech vr-researchdemochairs@ieee.org


*** Invitation to Exhibit ***

IEEE VR provides a unique opportunity for your organization to reach the world's foremost VR researchers and application builders. We invite companies, government organizations, and academic institutions to showcase VR-related products -- hardware, software, integrated systems, peripherals, innovations, literature or anything else of interest to our conference participants. Regular refreshments will be offered in the exhibit hall and the conference reception will also be held there, ensuring a good audience for exhibitors. Posters and research demos will also be located near the exhibits. Additional sponsorship and marketing opportunities will also be available.
