The first edition, which came out more than 11 years ago, has long been a reference guide and resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in our field, but with the recent surge in interest in VR, AR, and 3D UIs it was finally time to produce an updated version. The second edition has been re-built from the ground up, with tons of new content, improved organization, more recent references, and much more. Notable additions include two chapters on human factors and HCI fundamentals, and two running case studies that discuss the design of a VR game and a mobile AR application in light of the concepts in each chapter. Joe LaViola is the lead author for this edition, and Ryan McMahan also joined the team as an important co-author.</div><div><br></div><div>Apologies for the slightly ad-like nature of this post, but posting this on the 3DUI mailing list does have a historical justification. Ivan Poupyrev and I started the mailing list back in April 1998, and the early list discussions brought Joe, Ernst, Ivan, and I together to propose a tutorial on 3D user interfaces in March 1999 at the IEEE VR conference. The materials we developed for that tutorial and subsequent ones formed the basis for the first edition of the book!</div><div><br></div><div>We hope that this new edition will be a benefit to scholars and practitioners, both those who have been in the field for years and those just discovering it for the first time. And we’d love to hear your comments and feedback!</div><div><br></div><div><i>3D User Interfaces: Theory and Practice </i>is available on Amazon and many other online book sites. Here’s the direct link to the publisher’s page for the book.</div><div><a href="http://www.informit.com/store/3d-user-interfaces-theory-and-practice-9780134034324" target="_blank">http://www.informit.com/store/<wbr>3d-user-interfaces-theory-and-<wbr>practice-9780134034324</a></div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Doug (for Joe, Ernst, Ryan, and Ivan)</div><div><br><div>
