Europe's augmented reality players must join forces to compete globally
{Rennes, January 16th 2018 } An Industry Specification Group with b<>com, Fraunhofer HHI, the CEA, and Institut Mines Telecom as founding members was launched at ETSI last December to define an interoperability framework for augmented reality applications. Industrials are starting to join the effort with Siemens as a new member and actors like Bosch, Technicolor and Orange contributing to the discussions while considering joining. The focus on interoperability will benefit both technology providers and end-users.
