First responders (FR) need every advantage during critical moments of fleeting life, and SMART cyber-physical systems (CPS) provide crucial information for time-sensitive events. Wireless real-time convergence of building information modeling, interfacing of 3D data through machine-to-machine and machine-to-human analytics exchange, and bio-telemetry monitoring of victims and responders will save lives.

Auto-populated, legacy, and real-time remote sensed point clouds would allow FR personnel and their commanders to intelligently and visually understand their environments during response. Mixed physics computational fluid dynamic programs allow for predictive outputs in structure and wildland fires, hazardous materials releases, and other natural and human-initiated events. Technical rescues and high-life hazards will benefit from SMART Cities, IoT, remote sensing, virtual, augmented, and mixed realities. The unconscious patient will be treated via facial recognition software, allowing responders to know medical history, and complimentary real-time field communications will be transmitted to base hospital trauma surgeons-in 3D.

The SMART FR- during the response, mitigation, and post-incident analysis, will view emergencies through 3D projected light and holographic displays and immersive HUD lenses. The multi-sensor fusion-enabled technology is focused on saving civilian lives and empowering responders.

From 2005 onwards, Forklift University has been at the forefront of training people in Powered Industrial Trucks (PITs). They do both OSHA-compliant training and issue OSHA certificates.

The brain retains more information from real-life experiences. The millennial generation requires training that captivates and teaches in a more visual manner. So, Forklift University needed a captivating solution for Gen Z while being user-friendly and adaptive for Gen Y to the boomers.

Also, when it comes to PITs training, safety is of utmost importance, followed by cost. They needed a solution that would enable their users to learn the dos and don’ts of forklift driving in a reasonably realistic warehouse setting.

Travancore Analytics (TA) has been a critical player in the extended reality domain. When Forklift University approached TA with the problem, TA suggested a combination of Metaverse and VR to achieve the intended needs. TA created a realistic warehouse and sit-down forklift using 3D software. The same was incorporated into a complex, yet user-friendly application developed using Unity. The application works in conjunction with HTC VIVE Pro 2, a VR head-mounted device. The combination allows the user to drive a virtual forklift in a virtual
environment and undertake training curated with OSHA guidelines in mind. With various training modules of varying degrees of difficulty and functionality, Forklift University can provide its users with close-to real-life forklift training with complete safety. With VR technology, we can create multiple PITs training software under various environments that replicate real-life challenges and incorporate several features that, in turn, develop more in-depth training software.

After over a decade searching for mixed reality smart glasses capable of enhancing his low vision, legally blind Chris McNally walked into the Paris offices of Lynx with his blind cane and sighted guide, and met founder Stan Larroque.

After putting on the Lynx R1, Chris’ world was transformed making it possible for him to see tables, chairs and other obstacles in the room and the expressions on people’s faces during conversations - all impossible moments before. Was it magic? No, just the right combination of technology capabilities to meet the needs of Chris’ low vision.

However, this is just the tip of the iceberg, as advancements in smart glasses hardware, software and MR/AR/XR technologies, along with advancing AI and more, will create incredible opportunities for people with low vision.

As American cities struggle to build housing, improve transit, and otherwise convince a skeptical public that change is good - and necessary! How can AR help win over their critics? This panel will bring together a startup (inCitu) and platform (Snap) engaging the public at massive scale through offering passerby a glimpse of new projects in their actual context. They’ll be joined by a city official to discuss the potential of AR to deliver services, fast-track development, and re-imagine our relationship with the built environment at large.
