This field lies at the intersection of interaction design, and sound and music computing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the virtual\/augmented\/mixed reality communities (XR hereafter), the focus on research in topics related to auditory feedback has been rather limited when compared, for example, to the focus placed on visual feedback or even on haptic feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SIVE 2026 is the 9th of this series of workshops:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sive.create.aau.dk\/index.php\/pasteditions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/sive.create.aau.dk\/index.php\/pasteditions\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This workshop\u2019s main goal is to increase awareness among the virtual reality community of the importance of sonic elements when designing for XR. We will also discuss how research in other related fields such as film sound theory, product sound design, sound and music computing, game sound design, and accessibility, can inform designers of XR environments. Moreover, the workshop will feature state-of-the-art research on the field of sound for XR environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TOPICS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Submissions of research papers outlining ongoing research in interactive sound for virtual environments are welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Topics can include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sound design and synthesis for XR environments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sound modeling and rendering for XR environments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multisensory (audio-visual and\/or audio-haptics) interactions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gestural control and action-sound mapping in XR<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>XR for Musical Expression<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Perception-action loop in multimodal XR<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sound spatialisation and auralization<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Binaural sound and head-related transfer functions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headphones and speakers reproduction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobile XR applications and technologies of interactive sonification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Evaluation of user experience and sound quality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Virtual prototyping of devices and interactions involving sound<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SIVE for accessibility<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Audio only SIVE<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMPORTANT DATES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Submission deadline:\u00a0<strong>5 July, 2026<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Acceptance notifications issued:\u00a0<strong>17 July, 2026<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Camera-ready materials:\u00a0<strong>1 August, 2026<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Workshop date:\u00a0<strong>5 or 6 October, 2026<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Each deadline is 23:59:59 AoE (Anywhere on Earth) == GMT\/UTC-12:00 on the stated day, irrespective of the submitter\u2019s location.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SUBMISSION GUIDELINES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The submission website is:<a href=\"https:\/\/new.precisionconference.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&nbsp;<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/cmt3.research.microsoft.com\/User\/Login?ReturnUrl=%2FSIVE2026%2FUser%2FIndex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft CMT<\/a>*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We consider three categories of contributions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(C1)&nbsp;<strong>Papers<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>should be 4-6 page<\/strong>s in length and prepared using the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftc.computer.org%2Fvgtc%2Fpublications%2Fconference%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Cstefse%40dtu.dk%7Cdc3661288b3c4588d3ab08dec3bc333f%7Cf251f123c9ce448e927734bb285911d9%7C0%7C0%7C639163411004575153%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C40000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=SI1oy84JrRKJjVhAJ0ADsVhTnjfkmRxuED1iARwI81c%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IEEE VGTC format<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/tc.computer.org\/vgtc\/publications\/conference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">.<\/a>&nbsp;For accepted papers, authors must prepare a 5 minutes video to be delivered during the workshop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(C2)&nbsp;<strong>Posters should be 2-4 pages<\/strong>&nbsp;in length and prepared according to the same template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(C3)&nbsp;<strong>Demos should be 2-4 pages<\/strong>&nbsp;in length and prepared according to the same template, with an artefact shown at the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accepted papers\/abstracts (all categories) will be included in the IEEE VR Workshop Proceedings and will be published on IEEE Xplore Digital Library (Scopus indexing service and more).
