Meeting Goals
A global view of all AR standards activities, and activities not directly
designed for AR but extensible to AR use cases, needs to be maintained,
providing those who are implementing draft standards in their projects
and products a complete catalog of all relevant specifications and potential
liaisons.
This international meeting of experts provides a single forum for representatives
of all standards bodies and the contributors to AR standards development
processes to meet and discuss their activities and progress, and to advance
new specifications more rapidly than is possible without face-to-face interactions.
The meeting will permit experts to:
- Discuss current technical solutions which have been proposed by and
to the community, - Refine and update the landscape (mapping) of all standards initiatives
and activities of impact to the future of open AR, and - Identify the remaining gaps in standards for widespread AR adoption.
Call for Papers
This meeting will be based on a mixture of submitted papers, invited talks
and open format, group discussions. In order to inform discussions and to
