How XR Storytelling will Collide with Other Emergent Tech
summary
Panel argues XR storytelling has no single rulebook but converges specific tech: Unity/game engines, volumetric capture, hand and retina tracking, 5G and edge cloud, AR cloud and blockchain. Cited demos that actually work include Spheres (Rift) dazzles and live‑action Space Explorers; location‑aware AR like The Gruffalo and DuckTales table‑top experiments show what integrates with real rooms; standalone headsets and phones reduce setup friction; social features aim for asynchronous presence and Oculus Venues launches with moderation and multiplayer challenges.
