[x3d-public] call for contributions: SIGGRAPH 2023 BOF outreach on X3D 4.0, plus other events

Thu Aug 3 02:03:37 PDT 2023

We are assembling a fresh summary slideset for X3D 4.0, to be presented
@SIGGRAPH2023 in Los Angeles next week during the "#X3D Is Web Ready" Birds
of a Feather (BOF) session.

*	X3D4 is Web3D Ready
*	Join us and learn more on how X3D4 has evolved to support current 3D
technologies. X3D4 provides close support for the HTML5 Recommendation,
Khronos glTF Physically Based Rendering (PBR), and Web Audio API.
*	X3D4 is the basis of multiple file encodings and programming
language bindings. The X3D4 Architecture Specification is Web ready, used in
many 3D applications, highly mature, implemented, functionally complete, and
undergoing final editorial review for International Standards Organization
(ISO).

*	https://s2023.siggraph.org/presentation/?id=bof_109&sess=sess192
*	Event Type: Birds of a Feather
*	Monday, 7 August 20233pm - 4:30pm PDT 
*	Location: Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC) Room 514

Call for contributions: if you would like to share your work with X3D4,
please send

a.	Name of example model or application
b.	1-sentence description summary
c.	Screenshot images/video
d.	Website link

We'll be assembling a short slideset, show a few demos, and talk about X3D
future possibilities.

Apologies for short fuse. we are racing hard to be ready.  Give us what
you've got!  Thanks in advance for all contributions.
