Khronos standards are fundamental to many of the technologies on display at SIGGRAPH and the latest updates on OpenGL, COLLADA and mobile graphics will be on display on many of our members and partners booths.
Bookmark this web page as your information hub to everything Khronos at SIGGRAPH this year.
For the last fourteen years, Khronos Group open standards have been the foundation of a multi-billion dollar industry, and for those same eleven years Khronos has been honored to be part of SIGGRAPH.
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 will all be on Wednesday, August 13, in the Marriott Pinnacle Hotel, next to the Convention Center.
We will start with a morning focused entirely on education. Sponsored by the Kyungpook National University (KNU) of Korea, this session will feature professors from various universities discussing techniques and findings from teaching Khronos APIs. Following the Education session there will be an informal lunch sponsored by KNU.
In the afternoon we will have seven BOF sessions, where you will hear the latest updates on the state of Khronos APIs and much more.
All BOFs and the After-party are being held in the Marriott Vancouver Pinnacle Downtown, Pinnacle Ballroom (next to the Convention Center)

Ed Angel and Dave Shreiner changed their popular OpenGL course to cover WebGL. If you are new to WebGL, this is the course for you. The OpenGL course from 2013 is now on YouTube as part of SIGGRAPH University. In related news, the latest version of their popular intro textbook,Interactive Computer Graphics, now covers WebGL. I was one of the reviewers and, as an educator and practitioner, I love the direction. |
