                           IEEE Virtual Reality
                        Annual International Symposium
                                VRAIS '95

The IEEE Neural Networks Council and IEEE Computer Society Technical
Committee on Computer Graphics have joined forces to co-sponsor VRAIS
'95.  The conference will be held in Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina, at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel & Convention Center, March
11-15, 1995.  

The goal of the organizers and sponsors is to establish VRAIS as the
premier technical conference on Virtual Reality, providing a forum for
the communication and discussion of recent, significant research
results among scientists and engineers working in the many diverse
technical disciplines contributing to this field.  To this end,
technical paper submissions were carefully refereed by a program
committee made up of leading VR researchers. 27 papers were selected
from 66 submissions for presentation at the conference in sessions on
distributed VR infrastructure and applications, human factors,
perception and presence, hardware and software tools and techniques,
calibration and registration, and haptic interfaces.  Selected papers
from VRAIS '95 are expected to be published in a special issue of IEEE
Computer Graphics and Applications, in September 1995.

In addition to technical paper presentations and published
proceedings, VRAIS '95 will feature a video proceedings, tutorial
sessions, workshops and panel sessions.  Exhibit space is being made
available to vendors of VR equipment, software and systems, and to
relevant publications.
