Khronos is delighted to observe ten years of participation in SIGGRAPH North America with a huge new “Member Demonstration Pavilion,” an Open House hospitality suite for Press & Educators, and five BOFS covering a variety of our APIs.
For the last ten years, Khronos Group open standards have been the foundation of a multi-billion dollar industry, and for those same ten years Khronos has been honored to be part of SIGGRAPH. This year in Vancouver on August 9, 10 and 11, 2011, we have a greater presence than in previous years, and some exciting new developments.
Now hosting five BOFs with updates on Khronos APIs; see demos and win door prizes
Khronos Group founders and members are excited to visit Vancouver to talk about how Khronos APIs let developers tap into cutting edge graphics and media processing on platforms ranging from high-end workstations to mobile phones. Khronos BOFs are spread over two full days and this year there are five BOF sessions, where you will the latest updates on the state of Khronos APIs:
