Keynote: How VR, AR, MR and XR are changing the world
summary
Maps VR to concrete work: built a canal 360 film that made viewers feel wind and sun, created a virtual runway and a Void haunted-mansion demo, and shipped social and clinical apps like a traffic-safety game that reaches 4.5 million users, an agoraphobia exposure series, “Talk to Me” for social skills, and domestic-violence training for care workers. Uses Oculus/Vive/HTC room-scale, WebVR, volumetric capture and eye-tracking/real-time face synthesis, and claims measurable reductions in accidents and scalable surgical training.
