1 Definition
A Data Type representing an Object’s position, velocity, and acceleration.
2 Functional Requirements
- The Position of an Object is given by the Coordinates of a representative point of the Object.
- Cartesian and Polar Coordinate Systems are supported.
- An Object may have one of the following attributes: Speech, Audio; Visual; 3D Model, Audio-Visual; Haptic; Smell; RADAR; LiDAR; Ultrasound.
- Accuracy is the estimated absolute difference between the measured spatial values of each of CartPosition, SpherPosition, CartVelocity, SpherVelocity, CartAccel, SpherAccel and their true value.

4 Semantics
Table 1 provides the semantics of Position. It should be noted that each of Position, Velocity, and Acceleration can be expressed either in Cartesian (X,Y,Z) or Spherical (r,φ,θ) Coordinates.

5 Conformance Testing
A Data instance Conforms with MPAI-OSD V1.3 Position (OSD-OPS) if:
- The Data validates against the Position ’s JSON Schema.
- All Data in the Position ’s JSON Schema have the specifies type.
