Proceedings of the 17th ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and Technology

The ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and Technology (VRST) has become one of the major scientific events in the area of Virtual Reality since its debut in 1994. VRST 2010, held during 22-24 November, 2010, is the seventeenth VRST conference. We are very pleased to have VRST 2010 return to Hong Kong (since 1996, 2002 and 2004). The VRST technical program consists of high quality technical papers that are carefully reviewed and selected by an International Program Committee. Each paper in the program was reviewed by three to four members of the committee. This year, we received a total of 103 submissions (71 full papers and 32 short papers) from 50 countries. The International Program Committee was made up of 60 experts and researchers in virtual reality and related areas. The committee accepted a total of 18 full papers (representing an acceptance rate of 25.3%). In addition, it also recommended accepting 15 short papers and 10 posters/demonstrations.
