About

From Animation to Immersion

For over three decades, the International Conference on Computer Animation and Social Agents (CASA) has been a first leading forum for research and innovation in computer animation, virtual humans, and intelligent agents.
As the field continues to expand toward immersive and interactive experiences, we are excited to announce the evolution of our name to reflect this broader vision:
CASAXR: International Conference on Computer Animation, Social Agents, and Extended Reality.
The new name CASAXR embraces the growing integration of Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) technologies with traditional computer animation and social agents research.

Scope Highlights

  • Recent advances in Computer Animation and Simulation
  • AI for animation and XR environments
  • Human factors in XR
  • LLMs in XR and Animation
  • Socially intelligent virtual humans and agents
  • Digital humans and avatars
  • Immersive interaction and storytelling
  • Diffusion Models for Motion Synthesis
  • Use cases in medical or any relevant topics
  • Agentic AI
  • Ethical issues in XR and in generative AI

Call for Papers

The 39th International Conference on Computer Animation, Social Agents, and Extended Reality (CASAXR 26) will be held on June 1-3, 2026, in Geneva, Switzerland. The conference is organized by the University of Geneva. Founded in Geneva in 1988 by the Computer Graphics Society (CGS), CASA is the oldest international conference in computer animation and social agents in the world.

In the past few years, CASA has been held in Europe, Asia, North America, and Australia. CASAXR 26 will provide a great opportunity to interact with leading experts, share your own work, and educate yourself through exposure to the research of your peers from around the world. Authors will have the option to present their paper either in person or online.

Paper submission

We invite submissions of research papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to Virtual and Extended Reality, Computer Animation, Embodied Agents, Social Agents, and Visualization.

All papers selected for CAVW journal will go through further revision by CAVW editors.All accepted papers will be published in the journal CAVW (Computer Animation and Virtual Worlds) published by Wiley.

We look forward to welcoming researchers, creators, and innovators to CASAXR.

Join us as we explore the frontier where Animation meets Extended Reality.
