The document discusses a panel on open and interoperable augmented reality. The panelists included experts from IEEE-SA, The Heavy Projects, Perey Research & Consulting, and Georgia Institute of Technology. They sought to define an open approach to augmented reality that would work across any device or software, allow any data provider, and create accessible experiences for all. The community is working towards open standards to bring the virtual and physical worlds together in an interoperable way.
