Calling all Creators of X3D Content Jul 08, 2009
Be a Presenter at our SIGGRAPH 2009 Web3D Tech Talk
Aug 5 from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM
Submission Deadline: Friday July 17, 2009
The Web3D Consortium celebrates a decade of innovation and interoperability in Web3D technology. This year at SIGGRPAGH 2009 in New Orleans, the Web3D Tech Talk will showcase Web3D Consortium’s standard X3D, the only open, royalty-free and ISO-certified technology available today for interactive 3D graphics on the World Wide Web.
Join a large innovative community of content and application developers who see this standard as the future for deployment of real-time 3D graphics applications. The Web3D Tech Talk is always a popular event at Siggraph, attended by over 300 conference attendees. Last year we had standing room only.
Use of X3D systems has increased steadily throughout the world, delivering durable applications in industry, science, medicine, culture, entertainment and education. Indeed, worlds and scenarios authored over ten years ago still run today and are faster than ever.
If you have AMAZING, COMPELLING and INNOVATIVE cross platform X3D or VRML content, you may be invited to be a speaker to discuss and demonstrate your products at our Web3D Tech Talk. You will have 10 minutes to present your work and the tools used going from your concept to the final product.
