Virtually There

Face-to-Face interactions are getting more interesting as we complement reality with new technology.  Some of the concepts I've been proposing for the last year, part of my "virtua-city", are finally coming to fruition.


Before getting to those however, I wanted to let you know that I'm looking for the right agent/rep to get my story out.  


So let's get Real:


Augmented Reality : Domestic Robocop

The basic idea of augmented reality is to superimpose graphics, audio, and other sensory enhancements over a real-world environment in real time. Sounds pretty simple.  To date these systems display graphics for only one point of view. Next-generation augmented-reality systems will display graphics for each viewer's perspective.  One such example is this video produced by Keiichi Matsuda, a student at the Barlett School of Architecture in London. The video was created for his final year Masters in Architecture, as "part of a larger project about the social and architectural consequences of new media and augmented reality." Imagine the possibilities for B-to-B or B-to-C displays.

Virtually Face-to-Face
Using Cisco TelePresence, CEO John Chambers, who was live on the Bangalore stage, ‘beamed up’ Martin De Beer, the Senior Vice President of emerging Technologies, and Chuck Stucki the General Manager of TelePresence, live from San Jose, California. Chambers was then able to have a ‘face to face’ discussion with De Beer and Stucki on the future of Cisco TelePresence, demonstrating first hand the potential capabilities of the system in front of the live audience.




FaceTime
Imagine the possibilities for face-to-face communication using the new iPhone's capabilities. It will only add to our recent use of the iPhone to allow doctors to communicate with each other and talkback to the corporation.

Don't worry about the technical stuff - we make that happen for the creative concept.
