Establishing the European standards for extended reality

Extended reality (XR) is defined as technology that can merge the physical and virtual worlds. It covers virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality. As with any technology, XR faces certain challenges, particularly regarding privacy, security, ethics and associated safety, amongst others. The EU-funded XR4Human project aims to establish living guidelines on ethical and related policy, regulatory, governance and interoperability issues of XR technologies within a European community of practice. Project work will pave the way towards a strong and competitive ecosystem led by European companies for the wider deployment, adoption and acceptance of XR technologies.
