IEEE VR 2010 is the premier international conference and exhibition on virtual reality.

You will find the brightest minds, the most innovative research, the leading companies, and the most stimulating discussions in the fields of virtual environments, augmented reality, 3D user interfaces, and haptics, all gathered March 20-26, 2010 in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA (just west of Boston). We invite you to submit your work, show your products, and join us for a fascinating week of presentations, exhibits, workshops, and special events.

The greater Boston area is home to over 50 video-game companies. At this year's conference, we will promote the cross-fertilization of gaming and VR through several efforts. In addition to traditional VR topics, if your work lies at the intersection of VR and gaming, e.g., Serious Games for Education or Health, or MMO design and implementation, we look forward to your contributions.

Once again, IEEE VR 2010 is pleased to be co-located with the IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces (http://conferences.computer.org/3dui/3dui2010/), which will share the opening weekend (March 20-21) with the VR Tutorials and Workshops, and the Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environments and Teleoperator Systems (http://www.hapticssymposium.org/), which will follow VR on March 25-26.
