Conferences: CASA 2021 Call for Participation



The CASA Program Committee invites you to participate in Computer Animation and Social Agents 2021, which will be held online (from Ottawa) on July 15-17, 2021. The conference is tentatively organized in cooperation with ACM-SIGGRAPH, under guidance of the Computer Graphics Society (CGS). The conference has been held since 1988, providing opportunities for researchers and experts from both academia and industry to discuss the developments and the issues in the field of computer animation and social agents.



Three prestigious keynote speakers, Mark Billinghurst, Victoria Interrante and Michiel van de Panne, will present their latest research. We also prepared six sessions of accepted papers, covering the topics of avatars & agents, recognition & modeling, character motion, rendering & simulation, semantics & image processing, and VR/AR system.
