Immersed Conference in Toronto to Explore Frontiers of Virtual and Augmented Reality and 3D

Toronto, Ontario, Canada (November 13, 2014) – Organized by The Immersive Technology Alliance, the Immersed conference features two days of sessions by worldwide virtual reality(VR), augmented reality(AR), and 3D experts. It takes place at 99 Sudbury in Toronto, Ontario on Sunday, November 23rd to Monday, November 24th. Full registration includes sessions, meals and priority exhibit access.

“AMD Radeon™ GPUs and AMD Accelerated Processing Units are widely recognized as high-performance platforms for augmented, gestural and virtual reality technologies,” said David Nalasco, Senior Technical Marketing Manager, AMD. “We are proud to support Immersed as an opportunity to foster new Canadian expertise in these exciting areas of graphics innovation.”

The Network of Angel Organizations of Ontario, The Khronos Group, The Canadian 3D and Advanced Imaging Society and more are Immersed promotion partners.

“ImmersiON-VRelia’s mission is to drive human evolution through the mass adoption of VR. For instance, you can now easily have access to NASA scientific information, the solar system, and the circulatory system; all in an immersive environment, on a smartphone, and at a very low cost,” said Manuel Gutierrez-Novelo, founder and CEO of ImmersiON-VRelia. “We’re excited to share and showcase our ideas and technology at Immersed!”

Sample international speakers include John Gaeta (The Matrix Trilogy Academy Award winner, Lucasfilm), Mary Spio (Next Galaxy), Neil Trevett (The Khronos Group, Nvidia), Scott Broock (Jaunt), Shannon Blake Gans (New Deal Studios), Karl Krantz (Silicon Valley Virtual Reality), and more.

“I’m thrilled to be joining such a fantastic lineup of immersive technology pioneers and visionaries. SVVR is proud to support Immersed and its organizers as we share a common goal of helping to build a large and diverse industry,” said Karl Krantz, Founder and Curator of Silicon Valley Virtual Reality (SVVR) Meetup and Conference.
