Welcome to VResources, the Virtual Reality resource page
We welcome you at VResources, an affiliate web site of Virtual Simulations Inc. were you will find the latest information about virtual reality, 3D computer graphics, data visualisation (Viz-Sim) and related technologies. VResources goal is to provide the most complete information to professionals in all markets including people in the academic and military domains.
If you are looking for professional and personalized support for your virtual reality, immersive visualisation and simulation needs or need to buy VR hardware or software, please see our corporate web site at: www.virtasim.com. There you will have access to consulting and virtual reality systems design services.
Our hope in providing our web visitors and clients these two entities is to encompass everything our clients need to successfully take the technological turn to Virtual Reality which is expected to gain significant momentum in the years to come.
Speaking for all the people at VResources, I hope you will have a great time browsing through our web sites and that you will find what you are looking for.
We have received many requests to simplify the press release and news submission process at VResources. Indeed, many companies use Email lists to submit their latest press release to multiple information sources such as VResources.org. With this in mind, VResources now supports receiving news announcements and press releases directly from emails.
You are passionate about Virtual Reality, 3D and connected technologies. You are knowledgeable in those fields and would like to take an active role in those markets, get more exposure and establish yourself on the forefront of these technologies.
Join the VResources editors team today and share your knowledge with our large base of readers worldwide.
Editors can take an active role in the following:
- Weekly post news articles and stay up to date with the latest events in the field
3D television and CAD displays that require no wearing of glasses, or sitting in a special place, has already been demonstrated, but require a hefty amount of data bandwidth and computing power to make them work, not to mention multiple cameras to gather visual data, although this would not be a problem with CAD or creating virtual reality.
The technology is based on holography, and has been pioneered by two EU programmes, HOLOVISION, which ended last year, and OSIRIS, coordinated by Thomson, which concludes at the end of this year.

=============================================
2009 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics
October 11-14, 2009
Hyatt Regency Riverwalk (123 Losoya Ave), San Antonio, Texas, USA.
http://www.smc2009.org
Call for Papers, Special Sessions, and Tutorial Sessions
Theme: Intelligent Human-Machine Systems for Quality of Life
Prospective authors are invited to submit their full paper(s) electronically through the conference website. Each paper should be concise, but contain sufficient detail and references to allow critical review. Each paper will be judged by at least two referees. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings only if one of the authors is registered for the conference and is presenting the work.
4th Annual IEEE Tabletops and interactive Surfaces (TIS) Conference
November 23-25, 2009
Banff, Alberta, in Western Canada
------------------------------------------------------------------
The IEEE Tabletops and interactive Surfaces (TIS) Conference is a premier
venue for presenting research in the design and use of new and emerging
tabletop and interactive surface technologies. As a new community, we
embrace the growth of the discipline in a wide variety of areas, including
innovations in TIS hardware, software, interaction design, and studies
expanding our understanding of design considerations of TIS technologies and
of their applications in modern society.
Based on the overwhelming success of the previous Tabletop/TIS workshops,
TIS 2009 is introducing some new forums, including invited Tutorials and
Interactive Posters.
TIS 2009 will bring together top researchers and practitioners who are
interested in both the technical and human aspects of TIS technology. On
behalf of the conference organizing committee, we invite you to begin
planning your submissions and participation for this year's conference!

Logitech Flight System G940 Delivers Simulator-Grade Flying Experience, Authentic Controls, Realistic Force Feedback
To provide flight simulation enthusiasts with a realistic experience, Logitech today unveiled the Logitech Flight System G940. The latest addition to the acclaimed Logitech G-series line of gaming peripherals and the company’s first force-feedback flight simulation controller, the design and controls of the Flight System G940 were inspired by military and commercial planes and helicopters.
The Taiwanese display manufacturer AU Optronics has announced several new display technologies which will be presented at the Display Taiwan 2009 trade show.
Among these is the worlds largest 3D display screen, covering 65'' and featuring 12 seperate view angles. Glasses are not necessary with this kind of technology.
