This workshop, conducted in Seoul in October 2010 by Jens de Smit from SURFnet, delves into the challenges AR faces, including device variety, rapid developments, managing expectations, and social consequences. The workshop emphasizes the need for standards that cover architectural differences, adapt to evolving technology, and address privacy and social interaction concerns.

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
