WayRay Thinks Augmented Reality Will Be Mainstream in Cars by 2025
Vitaly Ponomarev, WayRay’s Founder and CEO, thinks that this hardware is throttling our advancement towards “true” augmented reality. “It’s almost impossible to shove the high rendering performance, convenience, and good quality wide-angled picture into a small form factor.” Ponomarev defines true AR as “AR that shows virtual objects to be actually integrated with the real environment and visible on various depths, not only on a screen’s surface.”
Euclideon’s All-New Multi-User 3D Hologram Table
Australian-based Euclideon is using its revolutionary Unlimited Detail (UD) 3D graphics processing engine to build the “world’s first multi-user hologram table.” With a 4.9 x 4.9-foot working prototype already in action, the 8-perspective Euclideon hologram table gives up to four users the incredible experience of interacting with digital content without needing a bulky Augmented Reality (AR) headset.
Augmented Reality Headsets Will Replace Your Office Desk and Computer
Augmented reality (AR) is an exciting prospect of our near future. We are able to superimpose holographic images onto our world through lenses or headsets. The fun parts of augmented reality include watching entertainment in high definition, but right now there is a race to develop AR for the corporate world. A company named Meta is demonstrating that they are not afraid to compete with the likes of Microsoft and other tech titans to dominate this niche.
Neuroreality: The Future of Virtual and Augmented Reality?
New developments in augmented reality and virtual reality are announced every day. There are already incredible AR and VR devices out on the market today that deliver experiences unheard of just 10 years ago. Keeping true to form, the next step in the evolution of full immersion is something that sounds impossible now but may be a common technology in a few years: neuroreality.
