Mental Models and Systems for Spatial Computing

May 30

10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Description

This talk will be an overview of the different components needed to build the future of spatial computing. First, we'll will dig into how computers perceive the world, and current state of sensor-based tech. Then she'll dive into which event types are most useful or specific for AR. Spatial computing requires a reassessment of how humans interact with computers, so this lecture will cover inputs and modalities, from button presses to facial sentiment analysis.

Finally, we'll close with how to get to the future, both with developer tools, and an overview of the current state of hardware in 2019.

AR is bringing great changes to the way we live, work, play and more. Mobile AR and AR glasses both enjoy the new interaction challenges, like no intuitive keyboard or touchpad for AR glasses, non-immersive experience on the mobile device. How can we overcome these challenges to build exclusive experience with mobile devices and AR glasses. In this session, we’ll explore how easy to create an immersive experience on AR glasses by mobile native and web-based AR app. We’ll also cover how to use different interaction models to enhance the AR experience from mobile device to AR glasses.

AR is exciting but as user become used to the technology delivery matters increasingly. WebXR brings VR but also now AR to the web. The specification is lead by the W3C and being currently implemented by all major browsers vendor, from mobile phone to high-end augmented reality HMDs. This new path provides a way to make content available without relying on dedicated app stores while bringing new challenges. This talk will touch on what is feasible today and how to start developing AR content on the way using experimental and stock browsers.

The XR developer’s dilemma is deciding which platform to make content for, and which will gain the largest audience. Given limited time and resources, targeting multiple platforms would be ideal, yet contains its own share of unique challenges. In this session, Andrés Ornelas and Coby Palivathakul share lessons learned applying a content-first approach to building Spatiate, a multi-platform collaborative art creation app designed for high-end Spatial Computing coupled with the reach of mobile AR. Learn best practices for approaching multi-platform, discover the unexpected benefits of building across realities, and walk away knowing how you can indeed play to the lowest common denominator while still maximizing each platform’s capabilities.
