In this episode, Tim and I  speak about Facebook's new hat-mounted AR and then talked about learning to fly.

In this episode, I speak with Enrique Cachafeiro.  He has some fascinating k-12 and university experiences on the practical applications of immersive tools.

In this episode of the AREA, Tim and I speak about Lizzie Bordon, old fogies using technology, and diminished reality.  

In this episode of the Versatilist Happy Hour, Amy, Rebecca and I talk about how Facebook is going to save us all by introducing Augmented Reality to all of our fedoras.  What's that you say?  You don't own a fedora? You might want to jump on that particular bandwagon. 

In this episode, I speak with Gulnoza Yakubova & Briella Baer about their work "Practitioners' Attitudes and Perceptions Toward the Use of Augmented and Virtual Reality Technologies in the Education of Students With Disabilities."

In this episode, I speak with Maria D'Errico about her work "Immersive Virtual Reality as an International Collaborative Space for Innovative Simulation Design." For more information about Maria's work, check out the links below:

The following description about UbiSim: UbiSim is the leading immersive VR training platform dedicated solely to nursing. By combining evidence-based VR simulations with an intuitive, web-based authoring tool called the Editor, UbiSim empowers faculty and simulationists to customize and design simulations that are curated for their students’ learning objectives. UbiSim partners with U.S. and international institutions to advance the shared mission of improving patient care and safety.

In this episode we talk about Augmented Reality Concerts, a Chinese city being built to foster creativity and invention, and how MMA is trying to become an actual video game through tech.

In this episode, I speak with Aviv Elor and Michael Powell about their work "Gaming Beyond the Novelty-Effect of Immersive Virtual Reality for Physical Rehabilitation." It's good to see that we're starting to study beyond the novelty effect in these tools.

In this episode, Tim and I talk about beers using AR and then transition into the safety concerns of AR windshields.

In this episode, I speak with Eva Peisachovich and Lora Appel about their work "CVRriculum Program: Outcomes from an Exploratory Pilot Program Incorporating Virtual Reality into Existing Curricula and Evaluating Its Impact on Empathy-Building and Experiential Education."
