CALL FOR PAPERS
Web3D 2002 Conference
7th International Conference on 3D Web Technology
http://Web3DSymposium.org
February 24-February 28, 2002
Tempe, AZ
Sponsored by
ACM SIGGRAPH and the WEB3D CONSORTIUM
The symposium will focus on the frontiers of 3D technologies and
multimedia. The annual Web3D Symposium is a major event in the Web3D
community which unites researchers, developers, experimenters, and
content creators in a dynamic learning environment. Attendees share
and explore methods of using, enhancing or creating new 3D web
technology such as MPEG4, VRML, X3D, RM3D and Java3D.
Papers:
Web3D 2002 will accept papers in the following three categories;
applications, research, and systems. All content must be
innovative and meaningful to the advancement of 3D technologies
on the web. Topics of Interest include but are not limited to:
- high performance 3D graphics for distributed environments
and teleoperation systems
- 3D graphics for wireless PDAs & cellular phones
- animated humanoid figures and complex reactive characters
- specifications, languages, or abstractions for specifying 3D
geometry and their behaviors
- methods for designing, representing, interacting with and
visualizing complex geometry and structure
- geometry/object behaviors in web3D settings
- 3D simulation & haptic systems to enable medical treatment,
rehabilitation & training over distances
- interaction methods for web based 3D graphics systems
- innovative user interface paradigms for navigating real-time
3D graphics environments and virtual worlds
- multimodal user interaction in virtual worlds
- 3d e-commerce and product visualization

Web3D Symposium 2002 February 24-28, 2002
After the successful Symposia in San Diego (1995), Monterey (1997,
1998, 2000) and Paderborn (1999, 2001) the world's leading
scientific/technological event in the field of Web3D will be held in
Tempe, AZ. The duration of the conference is four days: the first two
will consist of courses and workshops, and the second two days will
feature peer-reviewed papers and panels. A variety of different
events will be organized during the evenings.

"Humanism is dead. Animals think, feel; so do machines now.
Neither man nor woman is the measure of all things. Every organism
processes data according to its domain, its environment; you, with
all your brains, would be useless in a mouse's universe..."
