Workshop Topics

The topics and questions on which this workshop’s papers and discussions will focus include:

  • Authoring for diverse Web-based Virtual and Augmented Reality experiences (e.g. from handheld AR to fully immersive VR)
  • Browser support for interaction paradigms and techniques that support seamless switching between various multi-source and single source Virtual and Augmented Reality representations
  • Usage of low-level Web-browser technology (e.g., Web Assembly, Workers, WebAudio, WebGL) and decentralized Web protocols (e.g., IPFS)
  • User interface layouts in dynamically reconstructed spatial environments
  • Standards for accessing device poses, spatial information (e.g., semantic information about scene geometry), input / output capabilities
  • Collaborative Web-based Virtual and Augmented Reality interaction
  • Collaboration between users on a heterogeneous collection of devices (AR to VR, handheld to immersive headworn displays)
  • Privacy and security expectations of users when accessing the Web
  • Policies, best practices and guidelines for Web-based Virtual and Augmented Reality experiences
