International Workshop on Standards in Augmented Reality – Seoul, October 2010Jens de Smit – SURFnet
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. We make innovation work
