ISO/IEC 23005-1:2020(E)
Introduction
The ISO/IEC 23005 series provides an architecture and specifies information representation of data
flowing in and out of the real world and virtual worlds.
The data for the real world are communicated through sensors and actuators. The data for virtual
worlds consist of properties of virtual objects and multi-sensorial data embedded in audio-visual
content. The ISO/IEC 23005 series specifies data formats for sensors, actuators, virtual objects and
audio-visual content.
Data captured from the real world can need to be adapted for use in a virtual world and data from
virtual worlds can also need to be adapted for use in the real world. This document does not specify
how the adaptation is carried out but only specifies the interfaces.
Data for sensors are sensor capabilities, sensed data and sensor adaptation preferences.
Data for actuators are sensory device capabilities, sensory device commands and sensory effect
preferences.
Data for virtual objects are characteristics of avatars and virtual world objects.
Data for audio-visual content are sensory effects.
This document contains the tools for exchanging information for interaction devices. To be specific,
it specifies command formats for controlling actuators (e.g. actuator commands for sensory devices)
and data formats for receiving information from sensors (e.g. sensed information from sensors) as
illustrated as the yellow boxes in Figure 1. It also specifies some examples. The adaptation engine is not
within the scope.

of standardization, performs bi-directional communications using data formats specified in this
document. The adaptation engine can also utilize other tools defined in ISO/IEC 23005-2, which are
user's sensory preferences (USP), sensory device capabilities (SDC), sensor capabilities (SC) and sensor
adaptation preferences (SAP) for fine controlling devices in both real and virtual worlds.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) draw attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this document may
involve the use of a patent.

4 MPEG-V system architecture
A strong connection (defined by an architecture that provides interoperability through standardization)
between the virtual and the real world is needed to reach simultaneous reactions in both worlds to
changes in the environment and human behaviour. Efficient, effective, intuitive and entertaining
interfaces between users and virtual worlds are of crucial importance for their wide acceptance and
use. To improve the process of creating virtual worlds, a better design methodology and better tools are
indispensable. For fast adoption of virtual world technologies, a better understanding of their internal
economics, rules and regulations is needed. The overall system architecture for the MPEG-V framework
is depicted in Figure 2.

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO/IEC 23005-1:2020(E)
Figure 2 — System architecture of the MPEG-V framework
The MPEG-V system architecture can be used to serve three different media exchanges. There are
two types of media exchanges occurring between real world and virtual world, i.e. the information
exchange from real world to virtual world and the information exchange from virtual world to real
world. An additional type of media exchanges is the information exchange between virtual worlds. The
three media exchanges are defined as use cases in Clause 5.
Sensory effect metadata, sensory device capability, user’s sensory preferences, device commands,
sensed information, sensor device capability, sensor adaptation preferences and virtual world
object characteristics are within the scope of standardization and are specified in other parts of the
ISO/IEC 23005 series.
On the other side, the V→R adaptation engine, R→V adaptation engine, virtual world as well as devices
(sensors and sensory devices) are left open for industry competition.
Metadata is specified in other parts of the ISO/IEC 23005 series. Sensor device capability, sensory
device capability, sensor adaptation preferences and user’s sensory preferences are specified in
ISO/IEC 23005-2. Sensory effect metadata is specified in ISO/IEC 23005-3. Virtual world object
characteristics is specified in ISO/IEC 23005-4. Device commands and sensed information are specified
in ISO/IEC 23005-5.

ISO/IEC 23005-1:2020(E)
5 Use cases
5.1 General
The three types of media exchanges require information adaptations for a targeting world to adapt
information based on capabilities and preferences: information adaptation from virtual world to real
world, information adaptation from real world to virtual world and information adaptation between
virtual worlds.
5.2 System architecture for information adaptation from virtual world to real world
The system architecture for the information adaptation from virtual world to real world is depicted in
Figure 3. It represents V→R adaptation comprising sensory effect metadata, VW object characteristics,
sensory device capability (actuator capability), device commands, user’s sensory preferences and a
V→R adaptation engine which generates output data based on its input data.
Figure 3 — Example of system architecture for information adaptation from virtual world to
real world
A virtual world within the framework is referred to as an entity that acts as the source of the sensory
effect metadata and VW object characteristics such as a broadcaster, content creator/distributor, or
even a service provider. The V→R adaptation engine is an entity that takes the sensory effect metadata,
the sensory device (actuator) capability and the user’s sensory preferences as inputs and generates
the device commands based on those in order to control the consumer devices enabling a worthwhile,
informative experience to the user.
Real-world devices (sensory devices) are entities that act as the sink of the device commands and as
the source of sensory device (actuator) capability. Additionally, entities that provide user’s sensory
preferences towards the RoSE engine are also collectively referred to as real-world devices. Note that

ISO/IEC 23005-1:2020(E)
sensory devices (actuators) are a sub-set of real-world devices including fans, lights, scent devices,
human input devices, such as a TV set with a remote control (e.g. for preferences).
The actual sensory effect metadata provides means for representing so-called sensory effec

These scenarios assume that the automobile of the real world contains additional sensors –
RADAR detectors and multiple cameras – outside of cars. In other words, the cars
supporting the virtual panoramic vision equip RADAR detectors and cameras in front and
back of the cars. RADAR detector is an object-detection system that uses radio waves to
determine relative speed, angle of arrival, and distance. The outside cameras of cars
construct a top view images which allow 360⁰ overhead view of a vehicle. Hence the
information acquired from the real-world can be used for safety driving or the
reconstruction of car accidents in virtual world. . 60

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/IEC 23005-1 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,
Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information.

Introduction
The usage of multimedia content is becoming omnipresent in everyday life, in terms of both consumption and
production. On the one hand, professional content is provided to the end user in high-definition quality,
streamed over heterogeneous networks, and consumed on a variety of different devices. On the other hand,
user-generated content overwhelms the Internet with multimedia assets being uploaded to a wide range of
available Web sites. That is, the transparent access to multimedia content, also referred to as Universal
Multimedia Access (UMA), seems to be technically feasible. However, UMA mainly focuses on the end-user
devices and network connectivity issues, but it is the user who ultimately consumes the content. Hence, the
concept of UMA has been extended to take the user into account, which is generally referred to as Universal
Multimedia Experience (UME).
However, the consumption of multimedia assets can also stimulate senses other than vision or audition, e.g.,
olfaction, mechanoreception, equilibrioception, or thermoception. That is, in addition to the audio-visual
content of, for example, a movie, other senses shall also be stimulated giving the user the sensation of being
part of the particular media which shall result in a worthwhile, informative user experience.
This motivates the annotation of the media resources with metadata as defined in this part of ISO/IEC 23005
that steers appropriate devices capable of stimulating these other senses.
ISO/IEC 23005 (MPEG-V) provides an architecture and specifies associated information representations to
enable the interoperability between virtual worlds, for example, digital content provider of a virtual world,
(serious) gaming, simulation, DVD, and with the real world, for example, sensors, actuators, vision and
rendering, robotics (e.g. for revalidation), (support for) independent living, social and welfare systems, banking,
insurance, travel, real estate, rights management and many others.
1)
Virtual worlds (often referred to as 3D3C for 3D visualization & navigation and the 3C's of community,
creation and commerce) integrate existing and emerging (media) technologies (e.g. instant messaging, video,
3D, VR, AI, chat, voice, etc.) that allow for the support of existing and the development of new kinds of social
networks. The emergence of virtual worlds as platforms for social networking is recognized by businesses as
an important issue for at least two reasons:
a) it offers the power to reshape the way companies interact with their environments (markets,
customers, suppliers, creators, stakeholders, etc.) in a fashion comparable to the Internet;
b) it allows for the development of new (breakthrough) business models, services, applications and
devices.
Each virtual world however has a different culture and audience making use of these specific worlds for a
variety of reasons. These differences in existing metaverses permit users to have unique experiences.
Resistance to real-world commercial encroachment still exists in many virtual worlds where users primarily
seek an escape from real life. Hence, marketers should get to know a virtual world beforehand and the rules
that govern each individual universe.
Although realistic experiences have been achieved via devices such as 3-D audio/visual devices, it is hard to
realize sensory effects only with presentation of audiovisual contents. The addition of sensory effects leads to
even more realistic experiences in the consumption of audiovisual contents. This will lead to the application of
new media for enhanced experiences of users in a more realistic sense.
Such new media will benefit from the standardization of a control and sensory information which can include
sensory effect metadata, sensory device (actuator) capabilities/commands, user’s sensory preferences, and
1) Some examples of virtual worlds are: Second Life (http://secondlife.com/), IMVU (http://www.imvu.com/) and Entropia
Universe (http://www.entropiauniverse.com/).

various delivery formats. The MPEG-V architecture can be applicable for various business models for which
audiovisual contents can be associated with sensory effects that need to be rendered on appropriate sensory
devices (actuators).
Multi-user online virtual worlds, sometimes called Networked Virtual Environments (NVEs) or massively-
multiplayer online games (MMOGs), have reached mainstream popularity. Although most publications tend to
focus on well-known virtual worlds like World of Warcraft, Second Life, and Lineage, there are hundreds of
popular virtual worlds in active use worldwide, most of which are not known to the general public. These can
be quite different from the above-mentioned titles. To understand current trends and developments, it is useful
to keep in mind that there is large variety in virtual worlds and that they are not all variations on Second Life.
The concept of online virtual worlds started in the late 70s with the creation of the text-based Dungeons &
Dragons world MUD. In the eighties, larger-scale graphical virtual worlds followed, and in the late nineties the
first 3D virtual worlds appeared. Many virtual worlds are not considered games (MMOGs) since there is no
clear objective and/or there are no points to score or levels to achieve. In this report we will use “virtual
worlds” as an umbrella term that includes all possible varieties. See the literature for further discussion of the
distinction between gaming/non-gaming worlds. Often, a virtual world which is not considered to be an MMOG
does contain a wide selection of mini-games or quests, in some way embedded into the world. In this manner
a virtual world acts like a combined graphical portal offering games, commerce, social interactions and other
forms of entertainment. Another way to see the difference: games contain mostly pre-authored stories; in
virtual worlds the users more or less create the stories themselves. The current trend in virtual worlds is to
provide a mix of pre-authored and user-generated stories and content, leading to user-modified content.
Current virtual worlds are graphical and rendered in 2D, 2.5 D (isometric view) or 3D, depending on the
intended effect and technical capabilities of the platform: web-browser, gaming PC, average PC, game
console, mobile phone, and so on.
“Would it not be great if the real world economy could be boosted by the exponential growing economy of the
virtual worlds by connecting the virtual - and real world”; in 2007 the Virtual Economy in Second Life alone
was around 400 MEuro, a factor nine growth from 2006. The connected devices and services in the real world
can represent an economy of a multiple of this virtual world economy.
Virtual worlds have entered our lives, our communication patterns, our culture, and our entertainment never to
leave again. It's not only the teenager active in Second Life and World of Warcraft, the average age of a
gamer is 35 years by now, and it increases every year. This does not even include role-play in the
professional context, also known as serious gaming, inevitable when learning practical skills. Virtual worlds
are in use for entertainment, education, training, obtaining information, social interaction, work, virtual tourism,
reliving the past and forms of art. They augment and interact with our real world and form an important part of
people's lives. Many virtual worlds already exist as games, training systems, social networks and virtual cities
and world models. Virtual worlds will change every aspect of our lives: the way we work, interact, play, travel
and learn. Games will be everywhere and their societal need is very big and will lead to many new products
and require many companies.
Technology improvement, both in hardware and software, forms the basis of this. It is envisaged that the most
important developments will occur in the areas of display technology, graphics, animation, (physical)
simulation, behavior and artificial intelligence, loosely distributed systems and network technology.
