Right now there is really no PRODUCTIVE organization exclusively for location-based VR/AR/MR associations. Those that exist have not been productive with setting a list of standards for location based VR/AR/MR entertainment.
The group is a spinoff of ARLA Meetup https://www.meetup.com/arlosangeles/ and meant to serve the industry related to out-of-home entertainment for VR/AR.
This group is not open to everyone. The mission of the group is to
- Create a list of quality standards for content in the location-based VR/AR/MR sector
- Share research and insight on consumer behavior in regards to the location-based VR/AR/MR market.-
- Encourage more support from local and federal governments to subsidize VR/AR/MR companies
- Introduce more consumers to VR/AR/MR
In the long run we plan to be a registered trade association. Creating this Meetup is a starting point.
