XR4Human is a three-year EU-funded project and its mission is to co-create living guidance documents on ethical and related policy, regulatory, governance, and interoperability issues of XR technologies whilst building public trust and acceptance and a strong and competitive European XR ecosystem.
The Code of Conduct sets forth the ethical obligations for developers involved in technological innovation and governance of immersive technologies, including Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), as well as all current and other emerging immersive environments. The Code is designed to ensure that these technologies respect human rights, protect user privacy, promote inclusivity, and safeguard the mental, physical, and social well-being of all users. The Code of Conduct applies to all developers, organizations, and stakeholders involved in the lifecycle of immersive technologies.
In this panel-conversation we will discuss questions like: Why is there a need for a Code of Conduct, and what is its role in a fast-moving, global XR ecosystem? Why must the design and deployment of XR technologies be ethical, benefiting children and youth in schools as well as adults in diverse working environments?
You are invited to take part in the panel conversation, and through this provide feedback on the draft Code of Conduct for the Human-Centered and Ethical Development of Immersive Technologies.
