Call for Papers

The goal of the VECTOR workshop is to bring together researchers from different fields who are interested in, or already using virtual reality setups for psychological experiments, therapies, trainings, or immersive user experiences. The workshop will be a forum to present and discuss recent results, ongoing work and new technologies. We would also appreciate presentations of software tools and experimental setups.
