9th Workshop on Hot Topics in 3D Multimedia (HOT3D) July 27th 2018, News:
Workshop description:
The 3D community continues to innovate and evolve, with greater focus on enabling virtual augmented and mixed reality (VR/AR/MR) experiences. There have been amazing breakthroughs on the capture and acquisition in recent years, with the introduction of microlens camera arrays and the growing momentum behind large-scale multi-camera arrays, as well as 360-degree video and depth sensing devices. Display technology continues to advance as the emergence of head-mounted displays gain in popularity. The widespread increase in computational power – including powerful GPUs – has allowed an ever-increasing realism in 3D scene generation. Additionally, 3D audio has the potential to add to the immersive experience through surround sound and higher-order ambisonic sound field rendering. It is clear that recent trends in AR/VR applications have further accelerated research and innovations in 3D. All
these factors together create an environment prone for an explosion of related
technology and applications, with a speed of development that will not fit in
the slower cycle of traditional conferences and journals. In other words, while
appropriate venues for presenting research at advanced stages are plentiful,
the 3D multimedia community needs also an appropriate venue for receiving
feedback during early or initial stages of the development of
radically new and potentially disruptive technologies. This is exactly the void
that Hot3D tries to fill and what differentiates the workshop from the other
established scientific events in the field of 3D (e.g. 3DTV-CON, 3DV, 3DSA).
