A talk from the Enterprise Track at AWE USA 2019 - the World's #1 XR Conference & Expo in Santa Clara, California May 29-31, 2019.
Brian Vogelsang (Qualcomm): 5G and the Augmented Enterprise
5G promises to bring new levels of performance and efficiency that will power new user experiences and redefine a broad range of industries with connected services from retail to education, transportation to entertainment, and everything in between. 5G will also be a catalyst for Augmented Reality in the Enterprise, delivering multi-Gbps peak rates, ultra-low latency, massive capacity, and a more uniform user experience to businesses deploying AR technology. With 2019 as the beginning of a new era in communications, come learn how 5G will intersect the Enterprise Augmented Reality glasses of today, and become a fabric for enabling the more immersive experiences of tomorrow.

Boundless XR over 5G – Distributed Intelligence
The public or private 5G edge will augment on-device processing
1. Asynchronous time warp reduces Motion to Photon (MTP) latency by using on-device processing based on the latest available pose. MTP below 20 ms generally avoids discomfort — has to be processed on the device
