2nd Call for Contributions

Submission System & Extended Deadline

The EuroXR association (www.euroxr.org) would like to kindly invite you to contribute to the 22nd EuroXR International Conference - EuroXR 2025.

EuroXR 2025 will be hosted and co-organized by the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW), located in Winterthur, Switzerland. As in the previous year, our International Conference will take place with in-person attendance, so you can expect a rich experience. Beside Invited Keynote talks and plenary sessions for Scientific track, Applications track, and Posters & Demos track, we will also welcome this year joint events related to several ongoing European projects.

TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS

For all conference tracks, we seek original, high-quality contributions in all areas of eXtended Reality (XR) technologies, and thus related to Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), and 3D User Interfaces. In these areas, submissions may address a wide range of topics of interest, as listed in https://www.euroxr.org/conference-2025/topics.

Calls for contributions for each category will open at the different time windows:

• Scientific track: [Submission System is OPEN] Papers (Long, Medium, or Short) must describe novel research results and will be published in a Springer LNCS volume (Lecture Notes in Computer Science). For your convenience, indexing information of LNCS series is available on this Springer Webpage.

• Application track: [NOT OPEN YET] Extended abstracts, which are meant to describe practical use cases of XR technologies.

• Poster track: [NOT OPEN YET] Posters may present preliminary results of research or application projects or work in-progress. They will be submitted as an extended abstract.

• Demos track: [NOT OPEN YET] Demos may accompany any type of submission or may be submitted independently. They are submitted as an extended abstract.

IMPORTANT DATES (some extended) - each at 23:59:59 AoE time

• Scientific paper submission with rebuttal Apr 13 → Apr 15, 2025

• First notification for submissions with rebuttal May 9 → May 16, 2025

• Deadline for revised papers with the rebuttal May 16 → May 23, 2025

• Scientific paper submission without rebuttal May 16 → May 23, 2025

• Final notification for all Scientific papers (with/without rebuttal) July 1 → July 4, 2025

• Camera-ready submission of accepted Scientific papers July 14, 2025

• Deadlines for the Application, Posters and Demo tracks: To be announced later

SUBMISSIONS TO THE SCIENTIFIC TRACK

This year, two procedures are possible for Scientific paper submissions, which allow authors to choose between two different deadlines.

Submissions before the first deadline (Apr 15) will get a reviewing procedure that includes a rebuttal phase after receiving the initial review reports. This will allow the authors to clarify potential misunderstandings and to resubmit a revised paper before the final decision of the reviewers.

Alternatively, authors can choose to submit to the second deadline (May 23), but will not benefit from the advantage provided by the rebuttal procedure.

In both cases, all submissions will be reviewed by at least three independent reviewers.

Three sizes of papers are possible in the Scientific track:

• Long paper: 14-20 pages in the Springer format (about eight pages in traditional two-column format). If accepted, the authors will have about 30 minutes of presentation (including questions) during one of the scientific sessions of the conference.

• Medium paper: 8-12 pages in Springer's format. If accepted, the authors will have about 20 minutes of presentation (including questions) during one of the scientific sessions of the conference.

• Short paper: 4-6 pages Springer format. This type is meant for work-in-progress, position papers, and similar content. If accepted, the authors will have about 10 minutes of presentation (including questions) during one of the scientific sessions of the conference.

Proceedings of the scientific track of EuroXR 2025 will be published by Springer Nature as Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). Submissions have to be uploaded to the Meteor platform of Springer here: Springer Submission System
