Given the rapid growth of 3D research over the last decade and the recent surge of wide-ranging interest in 3D contents and techniques, the two premier conferences for research in 3D imaging, modeling and processing-3DIM and 3DPVT-are joining forces for 2011. The event will provide a unique forum for disseminating ideas and results that cover a broad scope of topics related to 3D research in computer vision and graphics, from novel optical sensors, signal processing, geometric modeling, representation and transmission, to visualization and applications. The organizers invite you to submit high quality, original full research papers by December 15, 2010 (tentative). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to;
ACQUISITION & MODELING
3D scanning sensors, software, and systems
3D view registration
Automated view planning for acquisition
3D photography
Multi-view geometry and calibration
Shape reconstruction from point clouds
Surface/solid modeling from images
Shape and appearance modeling
INTERACTION & VISUALIZATION
