The Visual Computing Trends Symposium will take place on January 30, 2025 at the Tech Gate Vienna. The four renowned visual computing researchers – Kwan-Liu Ma (University of California), Dieter Schmalstieg (University of Stuttgart), Ayellet Tal (Technion) and Anna Vilanova (TU Eindhoven) – present the latest developments in artificial intelligence, visual analytics and extended reality. With free admission, the audience can expect exciting insights into pioneering research.
The COMET Competence Center VRVis has been organizing the Visual Computing Trends (VCT) symposium, which takes place every two years, since 2009. With up to 300 guests from around 15 countries, it is an integral part of the Vienna science calendar. As a key technology in digital transformation, visual computing makes it possible to make complex data understandable and accessible to people. VCT offers the scientific community in Austria and beyond a central platform to exchange and network about the latest developments in this interdisciplinary field of research, which is rapidly gaining in importance.
The lectures will be held in English. Participation is free of charge, registration is urgently requested www.vrvis.at/vct2025 or by email to vct@vrvis.at.
