Comments on: How AR Browsers Should Be…

I think, at this stage, in the development lifecycle that there’s room and strong cases for doing both. There should be different browsers, looking to serve essentially the same service but then build on top with added value.

Why get bored by it? It’s not going to happen overnight anyway so I say enjoy the ride. Try out the browsers…some will appeal and continue while others fall short. Then as development aligns somewhat we’ll start seeing more discussions around interoperability and we’ll move into Phase 2.

By the way….is that paper publicly available?

Cheers.

It seems to me that an AR Browser simply needs a “location override” function as standard, to let people manually set their location.
By default it would be their real one, but if they want to be 100meters in the air looking down they can too.

I’m getting feed up with AR Browsers too, but mostly from the point of view they are all doing overlapping jobs with overlapping effort without much progress in specific areas.
Competition is good, but only when a common standard is established so everyone can access the same data on all systems.
Allthough webbrowsers have been correctly argued as to not being a perfect analogy, I think theres plenty to learn from the comparison. I can see thousands of facets of development, user interface improvements, functionality, plugins…..but untill the basics are done, arnt they all a bit of a distraction? If we arnt carefull people will be competing over the best “firefox plugins” before html is established.

umm…anyway, I’m rambleing ;)

Yes, other perspectives are good.
And yes, working on other stuff rather then making another incompatible browser is also good :P
