So Kellog's announced that they're going to be rolling out limited-edition cereal boxes that will include build-your-own VR viewers, akin to Google's DIY device, Cardboard. They'll have their own app too, with 360° videos that will reportedly include first-person rides on a mountain bike and a wingsuit. All of which is pretty cool. Nevertheless, we can't help but wish that instead of generic action sports footage, Kellog's had looked inward, to their own cereal brands and, more importantly, the

Virtual Reality is the next big thing in gaming. As soon as Oculus Rift launched its Kickstarter campaign, every gamer was anxious to get his/her hands on one. It became one of the most exciting campaigns on Kickstarter ever. Virtual Reality will bring gaming to a whole new level and developers are already on deck to make some exciting new games. Gamers want to experience their favorite games in the virtual world and interaction with other gamers will become more personal with the help of VR.

Given that Oculus/Facebook mothballed support for VR on Mac, the OSVR team at Sensics decided to step up and fill that void. Once successful, this will provide an active path to continue to work with Oculus (and many other HMDs) on Mac. It will also pave the way to make use of the many capabilities of OSVR including positional and predictive tracking, device-independent integration for cameras, gestures, skeleton, locomotion devices and more.

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.

You have shot some amazing 360º video content, but how will you distribute it to your audience and the different VR headsets? Of course you can upload it to YouTube , VRideo , or even Facebook , which all support 360º video, but traditional video platforms are not always the best option. Sometimes you want a branded application that supports all of the pro features that make VR even more compelling than just plain 360º video, like support for stereoscopic 3D and spatial audio.
