SXSW 2021

Navigating the Fragile XR Ecosystem

Description:

The current XR landscape is fragmented. Today, there is no standardized way to create, manage and distribute 3D content, with hardware and software providers using different file formats and systems on their respective platforms. This creates a time and money-consuming challenge for makers and marketers who want to deliver XR and AR experiences across all platforms with ease. As these immersive technologies continue to grow and become important tools of the future of media and marketing, this panel discusses the state of affairs and the solutions needed that support the next generation of creators.
