About Web3D RoundUP
Presenters are allowed little more than three minutes to wow a
sophisticated SIGGRAPH audience, armed with noisemakers to signal
their approval (or the opposite). A large onscreen clock ticks off the
remaining seconds of each presentation as the audience joins in the
countdown. The front rows have Ping Pong ball launchers on the
ready for demos that dare to run overtime. Since 1996, this event has
successfully played to marketing-sizzle-intolerant packed houses at
SIGGRAPH and ACM-sponsored Web3D Symposium.
We are delighted to announce that WildTangent is the primary donor of
