Following the success of the 1st WSR at IEEE VR 2024 with 14 peer-reviewed papers and 1 invited keynote, we further explore the theme of "Seamless Reality." By the term we envision the seamless integration of cyber and physical spaces, following the development of VR/AR display technology and perception understanding.
We define "Seamless Reality" as a concept that seamlessly integrates physical perception with behavior and cognition between cyber and physical spaces. Through this workshop, we aim to promote research on the fundamental technologies for realizing Seamless Reality, including AR display systems that enhance the realism of virtual images, AR representation design applying insights from visual cognition and psychology, and physical interactions with AR representations based on changes in physical space and haptic feedback.

Prof. Maki Sugimoto, Keio University, Japan
Title: Design and Verification of Augmented Perception on Extended Embodiment in Cyber-Physical Space
-Towards Cyber-Physical Human Augmentation-
Bio: Maki Sugimoto (Member, IEEE) received the PhD degree in engineering from the Graduate School of Electro-Communications, The University of ElectroCommunications, Tokyo, in 2006. He is a professor with the Department of Information and Computer Science, Faculty of Science and Technology, Keio University, Japan. He worked as a JSPS research fellow, a visiting researcher with NTT Communication Science Laboratories, and a senior assistant professor with Keio Media Design. His research interests include human augmentation in virtual spaces, embedded optical sensing systems for AR/VR and collective visual sensing systems with machine learning techniques.
Schedule:
Submission deadline: December 20, 2024 January 2, 2025, 23:59 (Anywhere on Earth) - Extended (Dec. 13, 2024)

All paper submissions must be in English and must comprise 6 pages maximum, NOT including references. We also welcome a short position paper of 2 pages NOT including references.
The review process is single-blind.
All Paper submissions must be prepared in IEEE VGTC Conference Style Papers (https://tc.computer.org/vgtc/publications/conference/) and submitted in PDF format. We highly encourage authors to use the LaTeX template. However, authors who choose to use the MS Word template should ensure that the PDF submission matches the PDF format template.
The submission and review of papers will be managed through PCS. We accept supplementary materials (document, image, and video format) with the submission.
