Is Holography the New Frontier for Augmented Reality Wearables?

01:45 PM - 02:10 PM

Description

Augmented reality has proved to be an exciting area of development for all major technology companies. Pioneers like Facebook are looking towards developing smart glasses in their quest to create the Metaverse concept.
However, headset manufacturers still need to overcome key challenges to reach consumer and enterprise mass adoption. Current AR/MR headsets rely on stereoscopic techniques to produce ‘3D-like’ images that lack real depth, causing them to appear disconnected from the real world.
In this presentation, VividQ COO Aleksandra Pedraszewska discusses how recent advances in Computer-Generated Holography offer the best solution to overcoming these challenges. New cutting-edge developments in holographic display mean users can experience true 3D virtual projections that blend seamlessly with the real world, retaining the same depth information our real eyes perceive. We will explore the principles behind holography, and how recent innovations in the technology are used in AR wearables today.

Learn how Medtronic built a framework to introduce Augmented Reality (AR) to their teams. The goal is to involve and align different stakeholders by showing AR-as-a-solution instead of technology hype. William Harding, Peter Tortorici (both Medtronic)and Dirk Schart (REFLEKT) will use the example of Training Guides to show the framework and impact of the solution.

Medtronic’s AR Training Guides reduce onboarding times by 50%.They will deep dive into the operator onboarding with the example of the EPIX use case to show you exactly how the switch to AR Training guides transformed the way they work in their facilities.What’s more, they will give you the full understanding of how Medtronic made it to their scaled rollout – all the way from the initial problem and project planning, to pilot, and then full deployment as well as the results they are now seeing.Here's what we will talk about:

• Medtronic Use case – Why were AR Training Guides deployed?
• Daily Usage – See what the Medtronic AR Training Guides look like and how operators use them in a normal day
• Benefits – What results are the facilities seeing after implementing AR Training Guides
• Framework - How easy is it to enable teams to use new technologies?

Leading head-mounted displays deliver immersive visuals and audio, but they’re packaged with plastic controllers that are designed for gaming. Enterprise and government VR users need to use their hands naturally and feel what they see. The success of mission-critical VR applications in VR often depends on having sufficient realism and accuracy. Learn how a new generation of wearable products deliver true-contact haptics through a combination of detailed tactile feedback, force-feedback exoskeletons, and sub-millimeter motion tracking. Hear how application developers for enterprise and government have embraced this technology to improve virtual training, design, education and even robotics.

We are living through a watershed year for immersive experiences. Our covid isolation has accelerated every form of immersive experiences. Streaming concerts, augmented museums, virtual meetings and immersive story telling. All of these verticals have reached to the world of immersive story tellers to keep us all connected.

Across all of these activities, spatial audio has emerged as one of the most important and visceral elements of the immersive story telling toolbox.

Apple has unleashed headtracked spatial audio on the more than 90 million Airpods pro users, Dolby Atmos, Sony 360 and Apple have been accelerating the adoption of spatial audio standards, and customers now have awareness of the power of immersive sound.

Join us as we discuss spatial audio production, delivery methods and the ever expanding customer experiences made possible by spatial audio. We will imagine the future of spatial audio and talk about the evolution of practical tools that are available today.
