What are the dimensions targeted by the new MPAI standard? To enable humans to experience virtual replicas of an audio scene of the real world from different perspectives while moving in it and orienting their heads. The standard will be called Six Degrees of Freedom Audio, and the acronym will be CAE-6DF. As a rule, before developing a new standard, MPAI publishes a Call for Technologies where it describes the purpose of the Call and what a respondent to the…

The latest – 15 June 2024 – MPAI General Assembly (MPAI-44) proved, if ever there was a need, that MPAI produces non only standards, but also promising new projects. MPAI-44 launched three new projects on 6 degrees of freedom audio (CSAE-6DF), technologies for connected autonomous vehicle components, and technologies for the MPAI Metaverse Model. The CAE-6DF Call is seeking innovative technologies that enable users to walk in a virtual space representing a remote real space and enjoy the same experience as if…

A new brick for the MPAI architecture

At its 43rd General Assembly of 2024 April17, MPAI approved the publication of the draft AI Module Profiles (MPAI-PRF) standard with a request for Community Comments. The scope of MPAI-PRF is to provide a means to identify AI Modules with the same functionality but with different features. First two words about AIMs. MPAI develops application-oriented standards for applications that MPAI calls AI Workflows (AIW) that can be broken down into components called AI Modules. AIWs are specified by what they…

Standards that innovate technology and standardisation

  • Post author:
  • Post category:MPAI

At its 40th General Assembly (MPAI-40), MPAI approved one draft, one new, and three extension standards. For an organisation that has already nine standards in its game bag, this may not look like big news. There are two reasons, though, to consider this a remarkable moment in the MPAI short but intense life. The first reason is that the draft standard posted for Community Comments – Human and Machine Communication (MPAI-HMC) – does not specify new technologies but leverages technologies…
