Abstract:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extended reality (XR), including augmented, virtual, and mixed reality (AR\/VR\/MR), has the potential to transform our lives, but there is an orders of magnitude performance-power-quality gap between what is achievable today and our ideal XR systems. To enable research and development in this area, we have built ILLIXR<\/a> \u2013 Illinois Extended Reality tested \u2013 the first open source XR system and testbed for XR systems research and development. Using ILLIXR, we have provided the first published results on performance\/power\/quality of an end-to-end XR system. These results show that systems of the next decade require, and ILLIXR enables, application-driven, end-to-end quality-of-experience driven, and hardware-software-application co-designed systems research. We have also launched the ILLIXR consortium, an industry backed consortium to democratize XR systems research, development, and benchmarking by creating a reference XR testbed based on ILLIXR, a benchmarking methodology, and a multidisciplinary XR systems research community. In this talk, we will describe ILLIXR, results from ILLIXR, the many research projects that ILLIXR is enabling, and the ILLIXR consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
