Scope and Topics
Research in Virtual Reality (VR) is concerned with computing
technologies that allow humans to see, hear, talk, think, learn, and
solve problems in virtual and augmented environments. Research in
Artificial Intelligence (AI) addresses technologies that allow computing
machines to mimic these same human abilities. Although these two fields
evolved separately, they share an interest in human senses, skills, and
knowledge production. Thus, bringing them together will enable us to
create more natural and realistic virtual worlds and develop better,
more effective applications. Ultimately, this will lead to a future in
which humans and humans, humans and machines, and machines and machines
are interacting naturally in virtual worlds, with use cases and benefits
we are only just beginning to imagine.
The First IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and
Virtual Reality (AIVR 2018) is a unique event, addressing researchers
and industries from all areas of AI as well as Virtual, Augmented, and
Mixed Reality. It provides an international forum for the exchange
between those fields, to present advances in the state of the art,
identify emerging research topics, and together define the future of
these exciting research domains. We invite researchers from Virtual, as
well as Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) to participate and
submit their work to the program. Likewise, any work on AI that has a
relation to any of these fields or potential for the usage in any of
them is welcome.
Areas of interest for the technical program include but are not limited to:
Systems, including techniques, performance, and implementation
- System components, virtual reality platforms
- AI platforms for VR/AR, cloud-based platforms
- Data generation, manipulation, analysis, and validation
- Tracking, physical environment mapping, registration

SUBMISSIONS
Authors are invited to submit an 8-page (regular), 4-page (short), or
2-page (demo and video) technical paper manuscript in double-column IEEE
format following the guidelines available on the AIVR 2018 web page. The
conference proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press.
Distinguished quality papers and posters presented at the conference
will be selected for best paper awards and for publication in
internationally renowned journals. For further information including
