Advance Registration is available On or Before February 10, 2009 !! -------------------------------------------------------------------- IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces 2009 March 14-15, Lafayette, Louisiana, USA (in conjunction with IEEE Virtual Reality 2009) 3DUI 2009 - Call for Papers http://conferences.computer.org/3dui We invite you to participate in the IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces 2009. The 3DUI 2009 Symposium is the fourth international symposium focused on the topic of 3D UIs and will be held to provide an intensive exchange between industrial and academic researchers working in various 3DUI research areas and to trigger discussions among participants. It builds on successful 3DUI workshops in 2004 and 2005, as well as the IEEE 3DUI Symposiums in 2006, 2007 and 2008. The symposium will last for two days, and will be followed immediately by the IEEE VR conference. Please visit the conference web site for detailed information about the conference program, schedule, registration, accommodation and organization: Highlights ============ * Conference Program http://conferences.computer.org/3dui * Registration http://conferences.computer.org/vr/2009/IE3_registration.html Advance Registration Due: February 10, 2009 * Accomodations http://conferences.computer.org/vr/2009/IE3_accommodations.html Discounted Hotel Reservation Due: February 13, 2009 Keynote ============ "The Inner Child of 3DUI Research" Dr. Gordon Kurtenbach, Director in the Applied Research Group, Autodesk Abstract: Everyday more and more of our products, vehicles and buildings are designed with 3D digital tools. Essentially, digital prototyping has come of age, so much so that it could be considered unusual for something to be designed without a CAD tool being used at some point in the design process. Based on this success, are we done? In this talk I'll argue that there are ideas yet to explore which are compelling and intrinsically linked to research on 3DUIs that may produce research contributions that lead to both the usual increase in productivity but also feed a user's sense of joy, wonder, and satisfaction. Biography: Gordon Kurtenbach is a director in the Applied Research Group at Autodesk. The group's focus is on 3D interactive graphics with research in the areas of interaction technologies, modeling, animation and rendering. Prior to Autodesk, Gordon was a researcher at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center and Apple Computer's Advanced Technology group. Gordon recieved his Ph.D. from University of Toronto in Computer Science and has many research publications and patents in human computer interaction. Research areas: human-computer interaction: input devices, bi-manual input, high degree of freedom input, menuing systems, UI for 3d graphics, human motor control and perception. Gord works with George Fitzmaurice, Jos Stam, and Azam Khan. Final Program ============ Saturday, March 14 09:15-09:25 Introduction K. Kiyokawa, S. Coquillart, R.
