Like many analyst firms, market sizing is one of the ongoing practices of AR Insider’s research arm, ARtillery Intelligence. A few times per year, it goes into isolation and buries itself deep in financial modeling. One such exercise recently zeroed in on headworn AR revenues. This takes the insights and observations accumulated throughout the year and synthesizes them into hard numbers for spatial computing ( see methodology and inclusions/exclusions).

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.

The metaverse continues to be a runaway train of future-gazing and speculation. But that’s not to say it’s a frivolous endeavor. There are legitimate discussions underway as a thought exercise for mapping out our connected future. That future may be a 3D rendition of today’s web. It could also have several tracks. As we’ve examined , these include online synchronous 3D worlds (a common metaverse connotation) as well as the “real-world metaverse.

Valkyrie EIR armbands maximize your Meta Quest workout using electrical stimulation. As much as I love to work out in VR, one thing missing when compared to a traditional workout is the lack of resistance. Whether it be lifting a virtual weight or punching a virtual punch bag, the absence of any resistive feedback takes away from the immersion and reduces the fitness benefits of the exercise when compared to the real thing. .

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?
