"Virtual Reality plays an increasing role in all
disciplines of mechanical engineering, from safety features
in car design, motion simulation in biomechanical applications
to aeronautics. The World Conference on Innovative Virtual Reality
is a joint effort of AFM and ASME, combining our networks of
expertise and research, allowing us to bring together experts
from around the world to present the latest research and demonstrate
cutting edge VR applications."
Gerard Maeder,
President of AFM |
"The cooperation between AFM and
ASME focuses on the organisation of a Congress on the emerging
technologies of Virtual Reality. We hope that the WINVR 09 Conference
will enlight professionals from both a scientific and a mechanical
industry background, in order to further develop and use VR
to a larger extent." |
