News from the annual conference EuroVR2018 – call for papers: a new, but ultimate, deadline for the Scientific/Technical papers has been selected: July 4, 2018 23:59 CEST.
After a number of request, the submission deadline for Scientific/Technical papers has been extended in order to provide authors the opportunity to spread with an excellence label their innovative works within the wide community of end-users, from large industry up to SMEs.
EuroVR President Marco Sacco will contribute to the conference SalentoAVR as Keynote Speaker, giving a speech on “Augmented & Virtual Reality Enabler for the Factory 4.0”.
SalentoAVR is an international conference on Augmented and Virtual Reality which is taking place in Otranto from 24th to 27th June. On this occasion, EuroVR president will propose an analysis on the evolution of the manufacturing sector, the so call Factory 4.0, which requires the introduction of advanced tools for both the knowledge representation and simulation.
For over 10 years, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality have generated benefits in several sectors thanks to the potentialities offered by these visualization technologies able to provide an added value to the contents and data enrichment.
Manufacturing companies, thanks to the reduction of cost and a widespread of devices, could now take advantage integrating AR/VR to simulation and emerging AI. The result is a Virtual Factory, a full digital twin of the real plant, that could be used for several purposes, from design to monitoring and logistics, from reconfiguration to training. Some industrial applications will be presented.

Web3D is an annual international conference for 3D Graphics celebrating its 23rd year. 2018 is a historic year for 3D on the Web and Mixed Reality. With WebGL now widely supported by browsers, tools such as X3D, X3DOM, X-ITE, three.js, glTF, and A-Frame VR are allowing to create 3D content on the Web.
The European Virtual Reality Tour has started!
EuroVR Association is co-funding an important initiative: the VR Tour. Organized by Laval Virtual, the tour is scheduled to visit the various actors operating in the fields of Virtual and Augmented Reality in all Europe.
The aim of this initiative is to build and enhance the relations among the actors and to consolidate the EuroVR network. The result of the Tour will lead to a map of the various actors operating in VR, AR, 3D and other related fields and areas of expertise.
It is therefore very important that EuroVR Members proactively support the VR Tour in each of its stops with some local resources. Members who want to contribute on specific stops can contact Laval Virtual organizers:
You can follow periodical updates of the VR Tour following EuroVR’s social media channels (Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) and support the spreading of social materials using the hashtag #EuropeVRt.
