Mini-track description : Virtual and Augmented Reality

Recent years have seen the emergence of devices supporting virtual and augmented reality. Originally considered for entertainment purposes, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) found their way into industry applications in areas such as education and healthcare among others. Thanks to a constantly improving technology, VR and AR are on the path to become the future of computing. However, some limitations, such as high device cost, social acceptance and safety concerns, may negatively impact this new technology acceptance.

Some possible topics to consider would be:

• Social acceptance of VR and AR • VR and AR as training platform and in education • Information sharing through VR and AR • VR and AR in entertainment • Social and safety concerns in VR and AR • Financial impact of VR and AR
