Current Status of Standards for Augmented Reality

Abstract

This chapter discusses the current state, issues, and direction of the ­development and use of international standards for use in Augmented Reality (AR) applications and services. More specifically, the paper focuses on AR and mobile devices. Enterprise AR applications are not discussed in this chapter. There are many existing international standards that can be used in AR applications but there may not be defined best practices or profiles of those standards that effectively meet AR development requirements. This chapter provides information on a number of standards that can be used for AR applications but may need further international agreements on best practice use.
