Stereopsia, the world immersion forum, is waiting for you in Brussels.
On December 5, you will be able to attend the International Conference on 3D Immersion (IC3D) sponsored by the Signal Processing Society and the IEEE. World class speakers are coming from UK, France, Canada, China, Hungary, Russia, and Japan.
On the last day of the event, the Cinematic VR & video games conference examines the limitations of most current cinematic VR experiences, and how game engines are coming to its rescue. The challenge for interactive storytellers is immense. They must preserve the empathy and suspension of disbelief of cinema, provide the interactivity & sense of agency of games, and guide a possibly intimidated viewer in its actions.
Join us at Stereopsia on 7 December in Brussels, Belgium, and meet top-notch international experts & companies of this great immersive challenge.

A new 3D stereoscopic video channel is appearing on the web. Launched by a French team of audiovisual professionnals frustrated by the lack of 3D content for their 3D TV sets. LaTV3D is officially recognized as an OTT media by CSA, the French AV authority, so they are allowed creation and broadcast of any 3D stereoscopic audiovisual content on all digital networks in France. The title catalog is not overwhelmingly huge, but is growing fast.

First targets are developers, so Magic Leap will release in a few month their 'Creator Portal' and a SDK.

After 427 newsletters, StereoscopyNews is putting an end to its weekly publication! Issue#1 was published on August 23, 2009 to advertise the first edition of the 3DStereoMedia conference and is still visible here on this web site.
We said : "We expect to publish a one-page newsletter and distribute it by email to our subscribers every week." And we did 427 times! But 2018 is clearly not 2009: interest has shifted from stereoscopy to VR and AR technologies and the amount exiting information about 3D don't justify a weekly summary anymore.
The StereoscopyNews web site will continue to bring 3D stereoscopic information to its front page, so keep checking our front page on a regular basis!
