SUMMARY:Emerging Technologies
DESCRIPTION:Emerging Technologies\n\nEmerging Technologies is a juried exh
 ibition within the Experience Hall that showcases the latest emerging and 
 innovative Technologies that aim to improve our lives. There will also be 
 scheduled presentations for submitters to explain the concepts behind thes
 e new research innovations.\nThis year’s Emerging Technologies theme is th
 e “IN(TER)VENTION.”\n\nDeveloping functional and experiential prototypes i
 s a crucial step towards novel technological innovations. As such, the Eme
 rging Technologies program plays a vital role within SIGGRAPH and SIGGRAPH
  Asia in driving the development of research communities and to make a gre
 at impact on the public.\nThe main form of presentation is a demonstration
  that promises to provide you with an awe-inspiring experience! The best d
 emonstration will also be selected and honored with the “Best Demo Award”.
 \n\nDazzleVR: Enhancement of Brightness by Presenting Afterimage and Dazzl
 e Reflex Sensation in Virtual Reality\n\nThe presentation of brightness is
  essential in virtual reality. In this paper, we propose a system that can
  induce the sensation of dazzle by presenting a realistic afterimage and a
