The UX of mixed reality
It feels like Virtual Reality is everywhere you look this year. For a technology that is over 55 years in the making, it seems like it’s taken a long time to become an “overnight success”. What is really driving this buzz and is it deserving of the hype?
The context will be set as to why a perfect storm of Mixed Reality (including Augmented and Virtual Reality), Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are set to drive the next computing paradigm, much like mobile has done for the last 15-20 years, and the PC before that.
What are the key components to these technologies that you will start using to solve design problems? How can you implement them in ways that create a frictionless, seamless experience for people across multiple devices (not just AR and VR goggles)? And what are the real world constraints that you need to keep in mind?
