Call for paper We are pleased to announce the 12th Workshop on Virtual Reality Interaction and Physical Simulation VRIPHYS 2015. The workshop is hosted by LIRIS and the Université Lyon 1 and will take place on Nov. 4th-5th, 2015. It is organized in cooperation with Eurographics. This year, VRIPHYS will be preceded by a tutorial/workshop for SOFA-users (Nov ?). VRIPHYS is one of the well-established international conferences in the field of computer animation and virtual reality. The workshop provides an opportunity for researches in virtual reality and computer animation to present and discuss their latest results and to share ideas for potential directions of future research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: animation, e. g. physically-based, vision-based, knowledge-based and geometric approaches virtual and augmented reality planning, learning, optimization for animation interfaces for creating and editing animations perception in animation autonomous characters, group and crowd behavior natural phenomena mathematical foundations of animation haptics sound interfaces related techniques, e. g. collision detection and contact handling applications, e. g. in robotics, medicine, entertainment Submission Paper submissions in PDF should be formatted according to the EG publication style. You can download the The Latex template here. Submissions must be anonymous, should be written in English and should not exceed 10 pages. We encourage the submission of supplementary videos to particularly illustrate dynamic aspects of a submission. All materials will be submitted electronically through the SRM portal before July 9th, 2015. All submissions will be reviewed by members of the International Program Committee. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop. A full proceedings with all accepted papers will be published at the time of the workshop. The EG exclusive licence form can be downloaded here.
