> In 2009, the 15th Eurographics Symposium on Virtual Environments,
> the 19th International Conference on Artificial Reality and
> Telexistence, and the 6th EuroVR (INTUITION) Conference are merged
> together into the *JVRC09 - Joint Virtual Reality Conference of EGVE
> - ICAT -- EuroVR.*
>
> JVRC09 will provide an opportunity for virtual reality researchers,
> engineers and users to interact, share new results and new
> applications, show live demonstrations of their work, and discuss
> emerging directions for the field.
>
> JVRC09 will include an open call for papers, short papers, posters,
> demos, lab. presentations, as well as industrial presentations and
> exhibitions from industrial partners and research projects in the
> wider area of Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality and 3D User Interfaces.
>
> The conference is organized by INRIA, France.

> *About EGVE* **
> EGVE is the Eurographics international symposium for the exchange of
> experience and knowledge among researchers and developers concerned
> with using and improving virtual environments. It started in 1993 as
> a workshop, and the symposium has most recently been held in Zurich
> 2003, Grenoble 2004, Aalborg 2005, Lisbon 2006, Weimar 2007 and
> Eindhoven 2008.
>
> *About ICAT*
> ICAT is the oldest international conference on Virtual Reality and
