Call for Research Demos

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 should include:

• A one-page description of the demo and the set up, and
• A one-page description of the research lab itself (no more than two pages total).

Demos are expected to be up and running during the Exhibitor Reception and the
lunch breaks. If possible it would be appreciated if they could run at other
times like coffee breaks, but that is not required for acceptance.

Researchers are encouraged to contact the chairs to discuss their potential demonstration.

The deadline for research demonstrations submissions is: January 28, 2010

Proposals for research demonstrations must be submitted via email to the Research Demonstration Chairs at vr-researchdemochairs@ieee.org.
