Collaviz @ Grand Colloque STIC 2012

The latest “ANR - Grand Colloque STIC” took place in Lyon on the 4th-6th of January. As a leading ANR project, Collaviz was invited to take part in this event.

Demonstrations took place during the 3 days exhibition, and the final project review was also held by ANR experts in this occasion.

But Collaviz is now a 42 months project, which means that there is more to come! A few additional ‘bonus’ developments will take place within the next months, with partners still greatly involved in the Scientific community, whether through papers publication or events participation.

Thank you to the project partners who participated in the “Grand Colloque STIC”.

And stay tuned for more Collaviz news!

Collaviz - July 2011

10th in the series, the last Collaviz plenary session was another success!

All the Workpackages as well as all the demonstrators were given the opportunity to share their last works, feedback, as well as their individual roadmaps for the last 6 months of the project.

As we are entering the last phase of developments, the enthusiasm and collaboration between partners couldn’t be better!

Here are some pictures of the event:

CGI, Web3D, Teratec…

The Collaviz project is in its 30th month of works and its members are keeping busy. Indeed, the project was presented and represented at several recent international events:

Computer Graphics International, June 2011, Ottawa (CANADA)
Members of the WP5 have had a full paper on “Joint Reversible Watermarking and Progressive Compression of 3D Meshes” accepted. They were hence present to show their works at this major conference, which main areas of interest included this year: Graphics Systems Architectures, Scientific Visualization, Image Based Rendering, Interaction and HCI, Virtual and Augmented Reality, Computer Animation, etc.

International Web3D ACM Conference, June 2011, Paris (FRANCE)
As a member of the Web3D Consortium, Collaviz is deeply involved in this community. Addressing a wide range of topics about 3D on the World Wide Web and Multimedia devices, this conference gathered over 120 attendees for this 16th edition.
The Collaviz project has been presented to the Conference audience, and the feedback was very positive concerning the outcomes of the project, and their future use/applications outside of the Collaviz Consortium.

Ter@tec Forum, June 2011, Ecole Polytechnique (FRANCE)
This year edition of the Ter@tec forum gathered 1000 people around various HPC topics. Like in 2010, Collaviz had a dedicated booth on the Exhibition floor and hosted a “Visualization : Simulation & Performance” workshop with a presentation slot dedicated to the project only. The workshop itself attracted approximately 100 people on various visualization topics and projects. We have been able to notice that Visualization was a real topic of interest for a growing community.

Here are some pictures of the Teratec Forum & Visualization Workshop:

Collaviz partners @ GdR ISIS CNRS days 2011

Works on Compression and Watermarking taking place within the WorkPackage #5 of the Collaviz project have been presented during the last GdR ISIS CNRS days of April 2011, in Porquerolles (France).

This event was focusing this year on 3D objects compression acquisition. And the 2 days conferences program was structured around 4 main areas of interest:

  • Acquisition
  • Representation & Meshing
  • Analysis & Processing (segmentation, protection, etc…)
  • Compression

Partners of the WP5 of the Collaviz project have hence been invited to share their works and experience in these domains, in the form of 2 presentations:

  1. Joint progressive compression & reversible watermarking for 3D meshes, by Cagatay Dikici (LIRIS)
  2. Progressive compression with random access to triangular color meshes, by Adrien Maglo (ECP)

Web3D Conference 2011

Supported by the industry and the Collaviz project, the Web3D Consortium is proud to announce that the next Web3D Conference will take place from the 20th of June, in Paris, France.

Sixteenth in the series, the 2011 International Web3D ACM Conference will address a wide range of topics about 3D on the World Wide Web and on Multimedia Devices. The conference will also include a Web3D Art Exhibition, spining the boundary between Art and Science.

This conference is a major European event for researchers, developers, entrepreneurs and other experimenters involved in 3D content creation or use in a dynamic learning environment.

A Call for Paper for this event has just been announced! All papers should be submitted by the 13th of March.
