United States Leadership in Immersive Technology Act of 2025

This legislation, known as the "United States Leadership in Immersive Technology Act of 2025," aims to bolster the nation's position in immersive technology. It mandates the Secretary of Commerce to designate a principal advisor on immersive technology and establish the Immersive Technology Advisory Panel . This panel is tasked with making recommendations on the effective and ethical use of immersive technology across the United States. The Advisory Panel will comprise various government officials and experts from academia, industry, and civil society. Its primary objectives include assessing the economic impact of immersive technology and providing recommendations on how to enhance U.S. economic competitiveness, foster collaboration between government and the private sector, ensure ethical use and data privacy, and establish global leadership in this domain. The bill also requires the panel to conduct a comprehensive study within two years on the immersive technology industry's state, its economic and national security implications, and to identify necessary standards and best practices for its deployment, including considerations for privacy, accessibility, and intellectual property. The findings and recommendations from this study will be submitted in a report to Congress and published publicly.
