Joint AREA - ETSI - XR4ALL Workshop, “Engineering XR for the Future: Frameworks, Requirements and Future Research”, 5-6 March 2020, Munich, Germany

16th Jan 2020

ETSI is pleased to invite entrepreneurs, innovators and thought leaders in the fields of Augmented Reality (AR) and Extended Reality (XR) to attend the first joint AREA - ETSI - XR4ALL Workshop, Engineering XR for the Future: Frameworks, Requirements and Future Research.

The event, hosted by Siemens, will take place on 5 - 6 March 2020, in Munich, Germany.

On the first day, the workshop will focus on interoperability - principles and frameworks, how to design for it and best ways to reap its benefits. Participants will learn about the ETSI AR Framework and how to develop clear interoperability requirements which, if/when met will improve their ability to integrate AR into their business and shorten Return on Investment. Standards Development Organizations will have a more detailed understanding of the customer requirements and, based on those, be able to evaluate if/how their organizations can reduce barriers to AR interoperability.

On the second day, participants will collaborate on a new industry research agenda that will shape the direction and funding of research projects in XR in Europe for the next decade. A research agenda is a strategic plan which guides researchers and those who support research through funding. The interactive sessions in this workshop will continue the process of identifying the most pressing areas for future research in XR as expressed by participants and assess their availability and capacity to support and/or conduct projects in new research domains.

By attending the event, participants will:

  • benefit from unprecedented insights into the use of open and interoperable interfaces and components to ensure that AR and XR technologies will scale up and impact every industry in the next decade,
  • have the opportunity to shape the research agenda that will drive the direction and funding of research projects in XR in Europe for the next decade.

The event is free of charge. Registration for the event is mandatory and will close on 25 February 2020. Register now!
