CSA Preface
Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the SCC Mirror Committee (SMC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T).
This Standard supersedes CAN/CSA-ISO/IEC 23005-3:18 (adopted ISO/IEC 23005-3:2016). At the time of publication, ISO/IEC 23005-3:2019 is available from ISO and IEC in English only. CSA Group will publish the French version when it becomes available from ISO and IEC.
This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group.
Scope
The technologies specified in this document are description languages and vocabularies which describe sensorial effects.
The adaptation engine is not within the scope of this document (or the ISO/IEC 23005 series).
This document specifies syntax and semantics of the tools describing sensory information to enrich audio-visual contents:
— Sensory Effect Description Language (SEDL) as an XML schema-based language which enables one to describe a basic structure of sensory information;
— Sensory Effect Vocabulary (SEV), an XML representation for describing sensorial effects such as light, wind, fog, vibration, etc. that trigger human senses.
