What is IVRC? International collegiate Virtual Reality Contest
establish in 1993 by Prof. Susumu Tachi
Contest of interaction
and virtual reality, which
fuses art and technology
Honors the greatest Virtual Reality and Interactive works of students
New education system through contest

IVRC: contest of the students, by the students, for the students
IVRC is the acronym of “International collegiate Virtual Reality Contest”, which has been held since 1993 and is the contest of Interactive products using advanced technologies such as virtual reality and robots. Our English name changed for internationalization in 2004, because we began to invite awarded teams from the French VR contest “Laval Virtual”.
When you hear the words such as “Virtual Reality” and “robot”, you should feel that special expensive machines are necessary to realize them. However, there are many ideas which can be actualized only with handmade machines. The main purpose of this contest is for participants to gain deeper understanding of and familiarity with interactive technologies through activities such as planning interactive systems, making devices themselves, and improving quality of their contents.
IVRC has not only the function of contest but also the function of education. It aims to construct the new education system of the 21st century to develop excellent human resources, who can think, learn, and work by themselves.

International Cooperation with Laval Virtual
“The winner of the IVRC Award in France will be invited to theTokyo stage of the IVRC in Japan as a challenger. Similarly, thewinner of the Laval Virtual Award in Japan will be invited to thefinal stage of Virtual Fantasy, category “Demos”, studentcompetition of Laval Virtual, in France as a challenger. Conditions ofinvitation will be defined every year by each part of this agreement.”
Agreement on International Cooperationat Laval Virtual 2004
IVRC and Laval Virtual will maintain an award partnership for three years (2004-2007): the Laval Virtual Award at the IVRC in Japan, the IVRC Award at “Laval Virtual’s Le Village de la Creations” in France.

Virtual Reality in the 1990s 1989 VPL Research Data Glove and Eyephone. “Virtual reality" was first used.
1990 Santa Barbara Conference (The Engineering Foundation)
Virtually all the researchers were summoned.
1991 ICAT (International Conference on Artificial Reality and Telexistence) was
held in Japan.
1992 Committee on Virtual Reality was established in National Research Council.
Its report was published in 1995.
1993 IVR(Industrial Virtual Realty) was held in Japan.
1993 VRAIS (Virtual Reality Annual International Symposium) and Research
Frontiers in Virtual Reality were held. They gathered together to form IEEE
Virtual Reality Conference.
1993 IVRC(International Virtual Realty Contest) was held.
1996 VRSJ (Virtual Reality Society of Japan) was established.
2001 IEEE Virtual Reality Conference was held in Japan.
2008 National Academy of Engineering (NSF) announced 14 grand engineering challenges for the 21st century on February 15, 2008. Enhance Virtual Reality is chosen as one of the 14 challenges.
23 years… More than 200 projects have been realized through 23
IVRCs including 21 projects selected as SIGGRAPH E-Tech.
Average 5 persons for each project mean over 1,000 persons have deeply experienced and understood VR!
IVRC students become staffs, and staffs now become world famous professors, designers, creators, and engineers.

21 CENTURY'S GRAND ENGINEERING CHALLENGES
National Academy of Engineering announced 14 grand engineering challenges for the 21st century on February 15, 2008. http://www.engineeringchallenges.org/
The final choices fall into four themes that are essential for humanity to flourish -- sustainability, health, reducing vulnerability, and joy of living.
Tremendous advances in quality of life have come from improved technology in areas such as farming and manufacturing. If we focus our effort on the important grand challenges of our age, we can hugely improve the future.
Enhance Virtual Reality is chosen one of the 14 challenges.
