From: kaugust@caip.rutgers.edu (karin august) Subject: CONF: VR Conf Dec 1-2 in VA Date: Sun, 8 Nov 92 00:14:47 EST V R A S P N O T I C E contact Karin August emails: CIS 71033,702 or kaugust@caip.rutgers.edu There is a great VR conference in Washington DC (actually Falls Church, VA) organized by the Data Processing Management Association. It will be held on December 1-2, 1992. Speakers include Dr. Myron Krueger; Dr. David Gelernter; Dr. Michael Zyda; Mr. George Zachary; Mr. Mark Long; and Mr. David Smith just to name a few (some of whom are VRASP members too!!!) Companies represented include VPL, VIRTUS, GE Aerospace, and many others. Published registration fees are a bit steep, but students who are interested should contact the organizers, because you can qualify for a special discount. Non-students need to contact me ASAP to see if a large group might persuade them to negotiate a special rate. Also, I believe you can get a break if you subscribe to CyberEdge Journal, an important sponsor of the conference and a good VR newsletter, too. Topics include industry and government applications for virtual reality, recent advances in research, as well as future trends. And there is always the exhibit hall to experience "hands on" a sampling of available VR products. Contact Dana Marcus at (310) 534-3922 (CA) to get detailed info faxed to you. IMPORTANT!! Students need to be able to send a copy of their registration form or other letter from your educational institution proving you are carrying a full term of credits.
