The era of VR & AR is coming
I went to VRLA 2018 few weeks ago and I want to share with you some of my thoughts about the new trend in VR & AR.
- Since we have so many VR developers from India, I found there are a lot of yoga, meditation, India culture / style of VR apps in the show. There are some tents full of spices, colorful painting, and music fo people to enjoy the VR meditation. You can see a lot of India culture in VRLA. It is pretty cool that our culture is mixed with a lot of cool elements.
- VRLA is getting big and mature now. Start from game industry, now VR is branch out to education, meditation, social medias… Pretty cool trend.
- Hard wears are getting cheaper & lighter. Intel just announced the super small hard drive for desktop (CPU). It is really small, just like any USB drive. And the cost of 360 camera is getting cheaper & cheaper each year.
-All the fields of knowledge are mingling together. In the future, game and film will mingle into 1 big field. Thanks to 360 degrees, there is nowhere to hide all the equipment & staff compared to the traditional shots, all the characters might need to be “360 scanned” in to 360 scenes or being made as 3D models. So game & film to mingle together and become — interactive film — big genre.
-All the fields of knowledge will become ONE. The super cool demo I saw today was — A writer wrote a story — 2 black holes bump together and create a new star — Amazing things happen along the way when you travel through the time & space. So Science, writing, storytelling, animation, music, 3D modeling, film director, technology, designer… will work together to create super big projects.
-I found out that people started to focus on 3D audio. A lot of cool bands, 3D audio equipments, 3D sound designs.
-Dance is a cool things when it comes to VR. I found out that in this VRLA, not as many games as before. Instead, more education, meditation, band, travel, film… using VR / AR technology.
