getWebXR

I had a fantastic conversation with Michael Jones, founder of BrainFizz VR.  Michael's experience with consumer VR goes back to the Virtual I/O glasses in 1996. This episode has something for everyone, historical context, present-day opportunities, and challenges, along with a prediction about Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) that makes a lot of sense to me.

Here are a few links related to the topics we covered:

All feedback is welcome.  If you have a topic request or know someone who I should interview, let me know @kirbyshabaga.  Thank you!

Luís Bravo Martins is the Head of Marketing at IT People Group and Next Reality, a B2B team of digital transformation specialists in Portugal. We had a fun conversation about how they started their augmented reality (AR) journey using the first iPad and fiducial markers up to present-day experiences with mobile and HoloLens 2. You may hear a prediction or two about consumer AR and how important WebXR is for augmented reality to flourish. Thank you, Luís, for sharing your time and wisdom.

"Be seeing you!"

This week the Oculus Quest launched to rave reviews.  I give my first impressions and thoughts about the device for first time users and how easy it is to build immersive web content with Amazon Sumerian.

The combination of Oculus Quest, Oculus Browser and tools like Amazon Sumerian will be a catalyst for the immersive web.

Be seeing you in The Metaverse!
