Tomorrow is the day the Meta Connect starts! Every year I like to play the speculation game about what to expect from there… and every year I predict a lot of things wrong (like that year that I said that the Quest Link was not going to happen… shame on me). This is a tradition I can’t skip this year, too. I’m swamped with work so I do have not much time to write a long post… but I still want to play the prediction game with you!

XR Today - Virtual Reality

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023

With technology like XR and AI increasing, firms are eagerly assessing the landscape to see if any new digital solutions can help improve business outcomes across various sectors and use cases. While XR and other emerging solutions have many advertised potential benefits. Businesses must adequately evaluate themselves to understand if XR is needed, what pain points it can solve, and what adoption challenges exist.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Apple popularized the smartwatch, just as it did with the smartphone when it released the Apple watch in 2015. But it wasn’t the first – IBM released the WatchPad , which ran on a cut-down version of the Linux operating system way back in 2001. And who remembers the Pebble ? Funded via a Kickstarter campaign in 2011, it was one of the first watches to pair with a smartphone to deliver notifications to your wrist.

Bigscreen Beyond is the most interesting and promising new dedicated PC VR headset to come out in years, and while there’s a lot to like, we’re still waiting on a key piece that will make or break the headset. Bigscreen Beyond has one goal in mind: make the smallest possible headset with the highest possible image quality. Generally speaking, this unlikely headset (born from a VR software startup, after all) has ‘pulled it off.’ It’s an incredibly compact VR headset

Remote meetings are here to stay - and many are BORING. If you are trying to engage your learners (or any audience), compelling content is critical. But trying to create stimulating content with the same tools you’ve always had is hard, right? Thankfully, wrong! Terrific tools in PowerPoint along with visual assets help you create the kind of dynamic content you need to capture your remote audience’s attention, with functions that allow for interactive sequences and navigation.

With 191 country signatories to the Paris Climate Agreement now hard at work in the race to zero carbon by 2050, much of the heavy lifting in ecosystem sustainability falls on the shoulders of the world's densely populated urban centers.

Since when has learning and development (L&D) become such a negative experience with its intended learners? Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
