General Chair Message

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to Greenville, South Carolina, for the IEEE Conference on Virtual Reality (IEEE VR) 2016. This is the 18th year of the premiere conference in virtual reality and 3D interaction in the world, and we are proud to host it here in South Carolina. In recent years, the conference has travelled to Singapore, Orange County, USA, Orlando, USA, Minneapolis, USA, and Arles, France. During these years the conference has grown in many respects, yet the basic format of mostly a single-track technical session has changed little. This year's conference, however, will feature some notable departures from previous years while still keeping with our cherished traditions of the IEEE VR conference.
