5. 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

6. Managing expectations
Challenge: set realistic goals, envision what the plateau of productivity would look like

7. 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?

8. 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
