International Workshop on Standards in Augmented Reality – Seoul, October 2010 Jens de Smit – SURFnet 18 januari 2019

My talk Purpose set the stage for the workshop let you know what I think invite discussion Challenges we need to address device variety how to deal with vary rapid developments managing expectations social consequences of AR how AR relates to other fields SURFnet. We make innovation work

Four modes of user interaction SURFnet. We make innovation work

Device variety 22” Challenge: develop standards that cover the spectrum and abstract the architectural differences 4.3” 7” 15” 3.5” 9” SURFnet. We make innovation work

Rapid developments Layar, Junaio, Wikitude keep adding features Bandwidth and compute power of mobile devices increase rapidly Research groups churn out concepts and prototypes by the hour Challenge: develop standards that are usable now but not obsolete tomorrow SURFnet. We make innovation work

Managing expectations Challenge: set realistic goals, envision what the plateau of productivity would look like SURFnet. We make innovation work

Social consequences AR builds a bridge between the real and the digital world People may very well have concerns about this How does AR affect privacy? How does AR affect social interactions? Challenge: do we need to address these concerns? SURFnet. We make innovation work

Relations to other fields AR is a presentation technology Other fields provide the content for AR We will need to contact those other fields; use their knowledge; connect to their workflow They will need to adopt our output Challenge: leverage available tech without limiting our own options and “sell” our solutions SURFnet.
