<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black">An exciting VRCAI 2018 awaits participants from both academia and industry all over the world, where fundamental methods, state-of-the-art technologies
and innovative applications in the Virtual Reality Continuum (VRC) will be presented and discussed. Virtual Reality Continuum (VRC) emphasizes the coexistence and consistence of the virtual world and the real world. Spanning across next-generation info-communication
environments like Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Virtuality (AV), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR), VRC is key in the way we define and interact, with and within, our virtual worlds and physical worlds. To advance research in the VRC fields,
VRCAI 2018 seeks to provide a forum for scientists, researchers, developers, users and industry leaders in the international VRC community to come together to share experiences, exchange ideas and spur one another in the knowledge of this fast-growing field.
