The VCX Forum member meeting was successfully held in Taipei on May 25th and 26th, hosted by AMD.

The event was open to not only VCX members but also non-members. A total of 120 experts from 27 companies joined in person or through conference calls; the participants worked together on different tasks for the new version and operations, putting competition aside. We made a great deal of progress during the meeting thanks to all contributors and supporters.



For the two days, we had many missions:

  • VCX Tech Seminar for the non-members/media
  • Check the status of current development and tasks, review of timeline, plan for Version 2023 and following versions
  • WebCam/PhoneCam 'metric to score' discussion
  • Lab Authority level
  • XR profile established, gathering the team
  • Subjective study overview
  • Panel discussion: How to cooperate for VCX score promotion/symposium sponsorship plan
  • Pal Lab invited VCX forum members to a lab tour and briefly demonstrated VCX’s WebCam test and PhoneCam 3D scene equipment after the meeting
  • Integrating new partners into the VCX process


After the member meeting, the Annual General Meeting took place. As an outcome, the VCX board members for 2022 were discharged, and board members for the new term were elected. The activities of each department, operation, and finance were reported to the members and closely looked into.
