Creates a federal panel to boost US leadership in virtual and augmented reality.
This bill would create a new federal advisory panel and designate an advisor to help the U.S. lead in immersive technologies like virtual and augmented reality. It aims to study how these technologies affect our economy and national security, and recommend ways to ensure ethical use and protect individual privacy. This means the government would actively work to promote and guide the future of these technologies.
Today, there is no dedicated federal advisory panel or principal advisor focused solely on guiding the U.S. strategy for immersive technologies like virtual and augmented reality. If this bill becomes law, the Department of Commerce would establish an Immersive Technology Advisory Panel and designate a principal advisor. This new structure would lead a comprehensive study and make recommendations to ensure the U.S. maintains global leadership in this rapidly developing field, addressing economic, security, and ethical concerns.
