an open standards organization that is driven by over 180 member companies developing publishing and maintaining royalty free interoperability standards for 3d graphics virtual reality augmented reality parallel computation vision acceleration and machine learning 1 2 the open standards and associated conformance tests enable software applications and middleware to effectively harness authoring and accelerated playback of dynamic media across a wide variety of platforms and devices the group is based in beaverton oregon 3 history edit the khronos group was founded in 2000 by

standard is managed by a working group which is established to define the requirements solicit input discuss and create a specification 1 there are currently 16 working groups 7 active standards edit 3d commerce universal guidelines standards and certifications for 3d content creation and distribution in e commerce 8 9 anari analytic rendering interface for data visualization collada a file format intended to facilitate interchange of 3d assets egl an interface between rendering apis such as opengl es and the native window system 10 gltf a file format specification for 3d scenes and models 11 kamaros a cross platform api for programming camera and sensor hardware and isp processing 12 ktx a container file format for storing gpu ready texture data 13 nnef reduces machine learning deployment fragmentation by enabling a rich mix of neural network training tools and inference engines to be used by applications across a diverse range of devices and platforms 14 opencl a cross platform computation api 15 16 opengl a cross platform computer graphics api 17 opengl es a derivative of opengl for use on mobile and embedded systems such as cell phones portable gaming devices and more opengl sc a safety critical profile of opengl es designed to meet the needs of the safety critical market openvg an api for accelerating processing of 2d vector graphics openvx hardware acceleration

specification to enable safety critical industries webgl a javascript binding to opengl es within a browser on any platform supporting the opengl or opengl es graphics standards a timeline of api specification ratification and releases can be found on the khronos group website 22 exploratory groups and councils edit typically khronos first creates an exploratory group to gauge industry interest before creating a working group which companies can join as members to assist in the development of the standard 23 machine learning council a collaborative forum composed of khronos member companies working to ensure that khronos ai and ml related standards evolve in line with industry needs 24 other activities edit member of the metaverse standards forum working on development of interoperability standards for an inclusive and open metaverse in conjunction with other international standards organizations 25 inactive standards exploratory groups edit openml an api for capturing transporting processing displaying and synchronizing digital media openkode an api for providing abstracted portable access to operating system resources such as file systems networks and math libraries openkcam advanced camera control api openmax a layered set of three programming interfaces of various abstraction levels providing access to multimedia functionality opensl es an audio api tuned for embedded systems standardizing access to features such as 3d positional audio and midi playback openwf apis for 2d graphics composition and display control streaminput an api for consistently handling input devices webcl a javascript binding to opencl within a browser hetcomm exploratory group worked on a low level api to facilitate communication between hardware components in heterogenous systems 26 members edit membership and contributions edit khronos members may contribute to the development of khronos api specifications vote at various stages before public deployment and accelerate delivery of their platforms and applications through early access to specification drafts and conformance tests 1 to ensure that the standards are consistently implemented and to create a reliable platform for developers any product that implements a khronos api standard must pass conformance tests an api adopter program enables companies to test their products for conformance 27 membership in khronos group provides access to an ip framework designed to protect participant ip khronos members agree not to assert ip rights against adopters implementing khronos specifications the ip framework protects khronos members from exposure to patent lawsuits and reduces the amount of ip that needs to be licensed from other group members 28 membership levels edit promoter full working
