In September of 2016, I attended a group meeting with some folks in Dallas, and then by January of 2017, we had our first major product in a school. Steve: Well, it was a MetaVRse product that I downloaded to my phone some time, in Google Cardboard. Do they want you to train them? Alan: So that's Google Cardboard.

A lot of what I do is try to take new and emerging technology -- obviously right now, VR/AR/XR; all that falls into it -- and using that to enhance messaging and storytelling, training, simulation, all of that type of stuff. You have the presence, for things like training, for things like real-time engineering.

We worked towards the next Dallas event that… I’m trying to think, what is it? A big company like Apple, Google, really pushing the thing out and saying, “this is what it’s going to be,” and then making it part of everyday life. That’s the problem now. It’s probably buried in a thousand others.

Nuclear energy is no joke, and to train to work in the field can be risky and costly… unless you’re training in a virtual environment. Alan and Vice discuss the pros and…well, are there really any cons to non-radioactive training simulations? How do you start training people in VR for nuclear facilities?

Alan: It’s interesting you say that, because I had Jonathan Moss — head of learning for Sprint — on the show, and they rolled out AR training to about 30,000 staff. They were taking their training and using it as a sales tool in the store. We know a little bit about how Google thinks about this. Alan: Yeah.

It was 2015, right after Google Glass, quote/unquote failed. Emily: Huge one is a shrinking workforce, that creates this need to train faster, better. So as the workforce ages — in manufacturing, I think the average age is like 40 to 50 now — and retires, not only do you need to attract new talent; you need to train them.

Google Ends the Daydream. The key message to come out of Google I/O this year was that the company largely abandoned its plans to push forward the development of headsets and content for VR effectively retiring the Daydream and focusing on Augmented Reality features for the Google Lens instead. Training for Just About Anything.
