We cordially invite you to participate in the ACM Symposium on SUI
2015. Now the program is available at the conference website. Early
bird registration ends Friday, June 17th.

The ACM Symposium on Spatial User Interaction (SUI) 2015 is the third
international symposium focused on the user interface challenges that
appear when users interact in the space where the flat,
two-dimensional, digital world meets the volumetric, physical,
three-dimensional (3D) space we live in. This considers both spatial
input and 3D output, with an emphasis on the issues around interaction
between humans and systems.

Due to the advances in 3D technologies, spatial interaction is now
more relevant than ever. Powerful graphics engines and high-resolution
screens are now ubiquitous in everyday devices, such as tablets and
mobile phones. Moreover, new forms of input, such as multi-touch,
finger and body tracking technologies are now easily available. In
this environment, spatial UIs are transitioning out of the research
community and game industry. More and more commercial 3D systems with
spatial interaction capabilities exist, many priced at the consumer
level. Until now, the challenges, limitations, and advantages of using
this third dimension for human-computer interfaces have not been well
understood. These questions will only become more relevant as the
associated technologies continue to cross the barrier towards wide
adoption.

The goal of the symposium is to provide an intensive exchange between
industrial and academic researchers working in the area of spatial
user interaction and to foster discussions among participants. ACM's
Special Interest Groups on Graphics and Computer-Human Interaction
(SIGGRAPH and SIGCHI) co-sponsor the event. The two-day symposium will
be held in 2015 in conjunction with ACM SIGGRAPH 2015, and will take
place prior to the conference.
