– Best submitted papers will be selected and accepted for a special session in VRIC Conference. 
– DEADLINE EXTENDED TO 18th Jan 2011
Finally extend until 23th Jan 2011!!

Presentation of the world’s most innovative achievements in the field of virtual reality, augmented reality and their future applications.

Laval Virtual ReVolution is an annual honor to the world’s finest VR project by Laval Virtual. This is a hall of fame award that decides the best Virtual Reality demonstration and/or application from all over the world. Virtual Reality is not only a technology but also a never ending story between computers and human history.

We cannot get the final answer of this issue immediately, as we still need to find and walk one of the many possible paths that will lead us to a future navigated by brilliant stars. The staring at those stars should be continued for the future voyagers on the way.

Of course, a great number of academic papers or commercial products can build a way of Virtual Reality. However we suggest a new relation between developmental projects and general public at on-site demonstrations. If a performed project has impact, technology and persuasive, it might move the general public and it changes our commonsense. So, this means a revolution in the history of Virtual Reality.

Please try to join today’s stardom with your exciting project.  And share the activity from all over the world! We hope to accept your brilliant projects which can get over the current common sense of Virtual Reality and make changes to the current human-computer interfaces and Virtual Reality history.
