WEB3D

Welcome to Web3D 2013! These proceedings represent the eighteenth international ACM symposium on 3D Web technologies. Web3D is sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH and held in cooperation with both Eurographics and the Web3D Consortium. The conference takes place in beautiful Donostia, San Sebastian, Spain, 20-22 June 2013. The focus for 2013 is on new 3D Web and multi-media technologies.

Web3D is a major event which unites researchers, developers, entrepreneurs, experimenters, artists and content creators in a dynamic learning environment. Attendees share and explore methods of using, enhancing and creating new 3D Web and Multimedia technologies such as HTML5/ WebGL, Flash 11/ Stage 3D, X3D, MPEG, and Collada. The conference highlights capabilities and trends in interactive 3D graphics across a wide range of applications and supports research from mobile devices up to high-end immersive environments. We are working on perhaps the grandest of challenges today: elevating the many benefits of interactive 3D graphics to become widespread, easily repeatable, every-day resources for anyone using the World Wide Web.
