Today I was pleasantly surprised by the announcement of Mobilizy with their proposal of an Augmented Reality Mark-up Language (ARML).
This proposal helps to establish a long-term sustainable framework to display location specific data on any Augmented Reality browsers, making sure that data can be universally accessed.
As can be read on the press release:

Features of the proposed ARML specification 1.0 include:

  • Founded upon KML with extension name-space for AR specific data;
  • Placement of a “View in AR” icon which clearly identifies a mobile website that supports location aware (real time) data in an ARML browser;
  • Compliance with basic XML document structure – no proprietary API required to create an AR layer.
  • ARML adherent data can be viewed on ARML browsers (Wikitude) & KML browsers (e.g. Google Earth);
  • Custom styling of AR data (points of interest) via standard KML styling elements;
  • Initial support for UTF-8 encoding.

What do you think of this development for the mobile Augmented Reality community?
