Amazing Augmented Reality
by Miki SaxonI’m not sure how many people are reading blogs this week, so, to be honest, I didn’t want to “waste” my wisdom (that’s a joke).
Instead of a Monday Golden Oldie, I thought I would share something I learned this weekend that shifted an attitude I had.
I’ve read a lot about virtual reality and the changes it will wrought.
But most of those changes seemed to be in areas that seemed frivolous, such as gaming.
Additionally, I couldn’t see people running around with VR headsets in the real world; perhaps in classrooms…
And I didn’t have much (any?) sense of ‘augmented reality’, other than the meaning of each word, or how it differed from virtual reality.
Then I saw this video from Magic Leap and at least part of the hoopla made a lot more sense.
Even I think it’s pretty cool.
Maybe it will even be used for more weighty things than games.
