************************************************************************

We are pleased to announce the 16th EuroVR International Conference -
*EuroVR 2019* - taking place on 23-25 October 2019 in Tallinn, Estonia. The
conference follows a series of successful European VR/AR conferences taking
place since 2004 and known as INTUITION, JVRC and recently EuroVR (Bemen
2014, Lecco 2015, Athens 2016, Laval 2017, and London 2018). The 2019
edition of the conference is being organized by the TalTech Mektory team at
the Tallinn University of Technology - Estonian members of the European
Association for Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality (EuroVR).

EuroVR 2019 will bring together people from industry, commerce, and
research, including technology developers, suppliers, and all those
interested in Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR), including Augmented
Virtuality (AV) and Augmented Reality (AR), and more globally 3D user
interfaces, to exchange knowledge and share experiences, new results and
applications, enjoy live demonstrations of current and emerging
technologies, and form collaborations for future work.

*TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS*

From this year on, all contributions are organized in two main tracks, each
one divided in several categories as follows.
*1)      **Scientific track* submissions can be:
a)      *Long *(14-20 pages) or *short* (8-10 pages) *scientific papers*:
original, unpublished papers documenting new research contributions,
practice and experience, or novel applications in VR or AV/AR/MR.
b)      *Scientific poster papers* (4-6 pages): work in progress or other
scientific contributions that do not fit one of the categories of this
call, such as ideas for unimplemented and/or unusual systems.

For this track, the International Program Committee (IPC) chairs, with the
Poster chairs for the second category of submissions, will select the
accepted contributions thanks to a *double blind peer reviewing process* among
IPC members. All accepted papers will be published with the sizing
corresponding to their category in the *Scientific proceedings of EuroVR
2019*, edited by *Springer* as a volume of the *Lecture Notes in Computer
Science (LNCS)* series. For your convenience, *indexing* information of
LNCS series is available on this *Springer webpage
<https://ieeevrpublicity-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/Redirect?ukey=1Hq7YtN0F5ozdTKqa5UIxcegrfouKuDoxHjwijz7Td2g-782439709&key=YAMMID-48015579&link=https%3A%2F%2Fnam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com%2F%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.springer.com%252Fcomputer%252Flncs%253FSGWID%253D0-164-6-1068921-0%26data%3D02%257C01%257CJohn.Quarles%2540utsa.edu%257C49d0010ea36d4c670a3908d6cc3b3b5a%257C3a228dfbc64744cb88357b20617fc906%257C0%257C0%257C636920952146944427%26sdata%3Dnj6mRJDcZDjCKXH4TckkiQMAZouSAik2aAZkfaMFmQ4%253D%26reserved%3D0>*
.
*2)      **Application track *contributions can be:
a)      *Application talk* (1 page abstract): best practices, practical use
cases of VR or AV/AR/MR, project results of applications using such
technologies in industry and other sectors, as well as actual or potential
transfers of academic results.
b)      *Application poster *(1 page abstract): recently completed VR or
AV/AR/MR applied work, application in progress, or unusual applications.
c)      *Demo* &* Exhibition *(1 page abstract): live demonstrations of
past and on-going projects. Technology developers and suppliers,
exhibitors, digital artists, and members of the commercial VR or AV/AR/MR
communities are all invited to exhibit and demonstrate the latest
technologies and applications.

For this track, the Application chairs, Poster chairs, and Demo &
Exhibition chairs, depending on the submission category, will manage
acceptation of the contributions. All accepted abstracts in this track will
be published in the *Application proceedings of EuroVR 2019* as an
ISBN-registered volume edited by *VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland
Ltd*.

We highly encourage all authors submitting any kind of contribution to
categories 1.a, 1.b, 2.a or 2.b, to submit also a live demonstration to the
Demo & Exhibition category (2.c).

*JOURNAL INVITATION AND AWARDS*

In addition, a set of the best accepted contributions will be selected by a
special committee structured according to the categories of the Scientific
and Application tracks, to invite the authors of the selected contributions
to submit an extended version to the *open access journal Frontiers in
Virtual Environments*.

Last but not the least, based of the work of the same special committee,
best awards will be decided for each contribution category within each
track. More information on the EuroVR best awards procedure will be
available soon on the EuroVR 2019 website, as well as the winners of
previous years.

*SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*

For all categories of the *Scientific track*, submissions have to be uploaded
thanks to the*Online Conference Service (OCS) of Springer*. Information on
the OCS page dedicated to the conference will appear in the submission
guidelines: *https://eurovr2019.eu/call-for-papers/submission-guidelines-scientific-track/
