The World Will Be Painted With Data<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0— from forbes.com by Charlie Fink<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

The world is about to be painted with data. Every place. Every person. Every thing. In the near term this invisible digital layer will be revealed by the camera in your phone, but in the long term it will be incorporated into a wearable device, likely a head-mounted display (HMD) integrating phone, audio, and AI assistants. Users will control the system with a combination of voice, gesture and ring controller. Workers in factories use monocular displays to do this now, but it’s going to be quite some time before this benefits consumers. While this coming augmentation of man represents an evolutionary turning point, it’s adoption will resemble that of the personal computer, which took at least fifteen years. Mobile AR, on the other hand, is here now, and in a billion Android and Apple smartphones, which are about to get a lot better. Thanks to AR, we can start building the world’s digital layer for the smartphone, right now, without waiting for HMDs to unlock the benefits of an AR-enabled world.<\/p>\n

VR Travel: Virtual Reality Can Show You The World<\/strong><\/a> — from appreal-vr.com by\u00a0Yariv Levski<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

The VR travel industry may be in its infancy, but if you expect to see baby steps leading to market adoption, think again.
