BOF at SIGGRAPH on 3D Spatial Interfaces in Video Games
Hello everyone.
As you may recall Doug Bowman ran a Siggraph BOF a few years ago on 3D user interfaces that was very successful (I believe we had about 50 people
attend).
This year, I am going to run a similar BOF at SIGGRAPH on 3D Spatial Interfaces in Video Games. As I am sure you are all aware, 3D UIs are becoming more and more prominent in video games (Wii, EyeToy, etc...). This represents a great opportunity for 3DUI and AR/VR
researchers to explore innovative approaches to video game interaction. My goal is to bring together both researchers and game developers/designers to one location to discuss interesting issues related to 3DUI in games and let people present their work in the area.
The BOF will take place on Wednesday, August 13th from 9am to 10:30am in room 307 in the Los Angeles convention center.
A significant portion of the BOF will be devoted to brief (5-minute) informal presentations on current 3DUI-related research projects, applications, and/or products related to 3DUI in games.
IMPORTANT: If you would like to present something at the BOF, please send me an email with the following information: your name, your organization, your email address, title of your presentation, 2-3 sentence description of your presentation, and URL for more information (if available). I will put all of this information on a handout that will be given to each participant in the BOF.
We will have standard AV equipment at the meeting (projector and screen). You can also bring demonstrations on a laptop if you wish - there will be a time for demos near the end of the BOF (anyone can bring a demo - not just presenters).
Please forward this notice to anyone you think might be interested who is not on these mailing lists.
Please use my UCF email address (jjl@cs.ucf.edu) when responding.
Thanks,
Joe
