Overview

We invite individuals or teams interested in organizing such a workshop to
submit proposals that will work at the conference venue for IEEE VR 2024.
IEEE VR 2024 will be held in-person. This will be our big in-person return
to the event after the difficult years under the Covid19 pandemic. We
encourage workshops to consider this in their initial submission to
maximize participation. We invite individuals or teams interested in
organizing such a workshop to submit proposals. Workshops will be held
during the first two days of the conference: March 16th (Saturday) and
March 17th 2024 (Sunday).



Workshops are intended to bring together researchers, developers,
technology providers, practitioners, and users for a lively and interactive
discussion of issues through an informal exchange of ideas and information.
Workshops may target a specific application area, a specific research area,
or a topic of general interest. Workshops should be more than just a mini-
conference of paper presentations. Workshops may include, but are not
limited to:



·        A focus on creating and exchanging new ideas and opportunities to
meet new people

·        A balance of formal presentations with informal discussion and
ideation

·        Emphasis on attendee participation and interactive discussions

·        Thought experiments and playing with ideas

·        Curated panels

·        Position papers

·        Recorded sessions prepared in advance of the conference for
attendees to watch at their convenience before live workshop discussion

·        VR experiences for attendees to try remotely before live workshop
discussion

·        Live application development by both speakers and attendees

·        Inclusive VR and geographical diversity

·        Creative ways of supporting participation across different time
zones

·        Breakout groups and presentation of ideas generated by the groups

·        A summary session concluding with lessons learned, insights gained,
and new ideas generated from the workshop

·        Continued discussion after the conference.
