SUMMARY:AWE 2026
DESCRIPTION:Since 2010\, AWE has been the world’s #1 XR and AI community\, helping connect\, educate\, and enable commercial growth and market adoption for 5\,000+ companies and 80\,000+ professionals in the ecosystem. 2026 theme — “I\, Spatial: Humans Empowered by Spatial AI” offers a human-centric alternative to giving unchecked responsibility to AI. It is an identity for those seeking to restore human agency in an AI world and a commitment to building a future that is responsible\, ethical\, and equitable. This is a call to action for the ecosystem to show what “I\, Spatial” means on the biggest stage in the XR world. \nCome see us! We will have representatives in the RP1 booth (928) and the Khronos Group booth (1041)! \nMetaverse Standards Forum Related Sessions\nFrom Web Browser to Metaverse Browser: The open-standards moment for AR glasses and the spatial services they need\nDate and time: June 16 at 4:30 – 4:55 PM\nLocation: Room 101A\nDescription: The web scaled on a simple premise: anyone can host content\, any standards-based client can display it\, and no single company controls either side. \nSpatial computing now faces the same choice. You can put on AR glasses today\, but the current web stack cannot browse geolocated spatial content. Either we build an open\, standards-based web for spatial content and services — or we risk staying locked into proprietary walled gardens. \nIn this session\, Sean Mann (CEO\, RP1) and Neil Trevett (President\, Metaverse Standards Forum and Khronos Group) will pull back the curtain on the Open Metaverse Browser Initiative and Sneeze — the first open-source metaverse browser engine\, hosted at the MSF to invite broad participation from standards bodies and industry. Leave knowing exactly what is being built\, who is building it\, and how to get involved. \nRSVP: https://luma.com/g47jv8x6\nLearn more at: omb.wiki \nSpeakers: Sean Mann\, RP1; Neil Trevett\, MSF\nLink \nOpen Metaverse Browser Initiative: A Working Roundtable\nDate and time: June 17 at 1:40 – 2:00 PM\nLocation: 103B\nDescription: Architecture\, roadmap\, and how to get involved in the open spatial web\n\nSomeone will build the metaverse browser. OMBI exists to make sure it’s open. The choices being made today will define what the metaverse becomes — and at AWE 2026\, that work is no longer theoretical. Sneeze\, the open-source metaverse browser engine\, is running in the first native metaverse browser. What gets built on top of it\, and who shapes what comes next\, is the conversation we’re having now. \nJoin Sean Mann (CEO\, RP1) and Neil Trevett (President\, Metaverse Standards Forum) for an open discussion on Sneeze’s architecture\, the open standards roadmap\, how OMBI connects with standards and tools you already use\, and how to get directly involved. Come with questions. The metaverse will be built by the people who show up. \nRSVP: https://luma.com/7saqg12f \nSpeakers: Sean Mann\, RP1; Neil Trevett\, MSF\nLink \n
