About The Infinite Retina: Spatial Computing, Augmented

Review "The Infinite Retina is a must-read if you care about the future of technology and the effect it will have - and is already having - on how we live and work and interact with each other. This book provides an exciting futurist view of Spatial Computing, where it is now and where it is going. Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble expertly present an holistic view of the new technologies that will have the greatest influence on all of us in the coming decade."--Sebastian Thrun, CEO of Kitty Hawk, and Co-founder and President of Udacity "I was on the team that built the very first iPhone and have worked through and with many technologies. In The Infinite Retina, Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble demonstrate a deep understanding of Spatial Computing, the next paradigm in technology. The level of detail with which they chart its impact is nothing short of spectacular."--Andy Grignon, Design and Technology Fellow, JPMorgan Chase "The perfect guidebook to Spatial Computing by two authors with authentic hands-on experience. They explain where we are today, why we are already familiar with the "infinite retina" era often seemingly unbeknownst to us, and how Spatial Computing will augment our understanding of the analog world, as well as increase our agency with our surroundings."--Marylene Delbourg-Delphis, Serial Tech CEO and Board Member "Cronin and Scoble take us on a journey that transcends analog to digital to fully immersive virtual worlds. It's what you do with these visions that define your place in the next tech revolution. We now live in a world rife with disruption and there are two ways forward. Disrupted or be disrupted. This isn't a spectator sport. Don't be fooled by the application side of this story. Even though we'll all be consumers of Spatial Computing, AR/VR/Mixed Reality, there will be organizations disrupted by it and also organizations that thrive by being in front of it. It's a choice, really."

Key Features Discover how Spatial Computing is changing the face of technology Get a roadmap for the disruptions caused by Spatial Computing and how it will affect seven major industries Gain insights about the past, present, and future of technology from the world's leading experts and innovators Book Description What is Spatial Computing and why is everyone from Tesla, Apple, and Facebook investing heavily in it? In The Infinite Retina, authors Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble attempt to answer that question by helping you understand where Spatial Computing - an augmented reality where humans and machines can interact in a physical space - came from, where it's going, and why it's so fundamentally different from the computers or mobile phones that came before. They present seven visions of the future and the industry verticals in which Spatial Computing has the most influence - Transportation; Technology, Media, and Telecommunications; Manufacturing; Retail; Healthcare; Finance; and Education. The book also shares insights about the past, present, and future from leading experts an other industry veterans and innovators, including Sebastian Thrun, Ken Bretschneider, and Hugo Swart. They dive into what they think will happen in Spatial Computing in the near and medium term, and also explore what it could mean for humanity in the long term. The Infinite Retina then leaves it up to you to decide whether Spatial Computing is truly where the future of technology is heading or whether it's just an exciting, but passing, phase. What you will learn Look back at historical paradigms that changed the face of technology Consider how Spatial Computing could be the new technology that changes our lives See how Vi
