Sessions
  • VR, AR and Life: The Inevitable - And Hopeful - Integration
    01:30 PM - 01:45 PM Jun 1
    Technology is neither good nor bad: its how you use it. As low cost, ever higher fidelity immersive interfaces - VR, AR increasingly MR - continue their race to organic integration within our lives, the question is increasingly asked: what does these intrusions do to our authentic 'humanness" - and our pursuit for a higher quality of life for all? And accordingly, where do the greatest opportunities for both financial and social ROI lay? This panel (or presentation) will address the psychology, sociology and digital anthropology of immersion - and how these new increasingly powerful tools of persuasion are likely to be integrated into our consciousness, both irresponsibly, and ideally for the better.
