      "body": "**Davos**. World Economic Forum's top event in Europe. This year without Trump (government shutdown), without Theresa May (Brexit deal. Not.) and without Macron (yellow west protests). But there are still many kings and queens, ministers, global businesses and NGOs present. Four days of networking at the \"world’s most important watering hole\" (http://time.com/5505958/davos-2019-world-economic-forum/).\n\nI have just got in, beautiful weather, snow & sun! Preparing our pavilion, putting up TVs, arranging the pavilion.\n\n![IMG_0623.JPG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRX1QaYGJrZT7tnDJof7SyNWr3PKHkHwDUwB8S5mk2r9a/IMG_0623.JPG)\n\n**Why am I here?** First of all, because I got the chance to be here. Who wouldn't want to come? UN, WEF and multinational company folks are fighting for years to get here. \n\nOk, but why? What is my personal agenda? I have three reasons to be here. \n\n**Reason 1. Circular economy.** We have thrown so much waste out of the door that today it comes back through the window. We need to do something about it. And it has to be a business interest behind it, otherwise it simply won't work. I plan to get more clarity about what is going on regarding this.\n\n**Reason 2. Blockchain.** This is one of those things which's existence should render the need for them obsolete. Why do we need Blockchain? Because we lie. We lie so much that it is hard to know, when we are not lying. And Blockchain is viewed as a system for eliminating the idea of lying. Or at least make lying available to those, who have the required computing power. Or a quantum computer. A lot of Blockchain interest is present in Davos, just check the DavosX app! I plan to meet them to learn more about Blockchain opportunities and challenges. \n\n**Reason 3.** This is a secret. Little selfish, little silly so you'll never know.\n\nThat's for now, check back tomorrow for more!\n\n*Disclosure: I work as a consultant for TerraCycle, a revolutionary recycling company attending the World Economic Forum's Davos Summit.*",

      "body": "Life is decisions. Some automatic. Some not.\n\nShould I let my leaves go now, or tomorrow? Should I eat this herb and not the other? Should I kill this old deer or the young one with the wounded leg? Should I wear a tie? Should I buy this iPhone? Should I invest in Bitcoin or stocks?Should I vote? For who?\n\nWe take decisions every day. Thanks to the social media and the enabled notifications, we might need to make decisions every minute. Should I look at my phone? Should I reply? What? Sleep-texting is an extreme example for this.\n\nI don't know about you, but I imagine, that inside me there is a 3-level stack of decision-makers. \n\nLower level, embedded in the \"hardware\": reflexes. Hot? Let it go! Stinks? Go away! Some of these can be overriden. Must pee? Wait for the toilet! And the override can also be automated. Need to pee while sleeping? Hold it, or wake up. Need to fart while sleeping? Let it out! These decisions reflect more or less to myself only. \n\nWhen others are also affected by my decisions, a higher level of decision-making kicks in. Social skills like empathy are needed here. Sets of rules have to be applied. These come by different names: fashion, etiquette, religion. Their benefit: make decision-making quick. In an evolutionary model that can be important selection factor.\n\nBut my decision-makers are not that simple. A lot of decisions are biased by sentiments. Which girl do I like? Who do I hate? Somewhere between my reflexes and my rationale these buggers keep messing things up. \n\nSo how do I make decisions? Whom of these decision-makers do I trust? Well, this is also a decision.\n\nWhat I am trying to do is the following: if there is no conflict between my emotional and rational decisions, it is all good. But when there is a conflict, I am trying to analyse the emotional one: is it a bad emotion, lake hatred, fear or envy? If yes, I  try to force myself to take the other option. As said, I try. But many times I cannot do the right decision, I just cannot.\n\nWhy do I write about all this? First of all, to clarify it for myself. If it makes you wonder about your decision-makers, I am happy about it. But as social media platforms made micro-targeting possible, many campaigns target our emotional decision-makers. Not only advertisements, but also political campaigns, think Bolsonaro, Trump, Orban and Brexit! I have to fight my guts over their messages a lot.\n\nBottomline: I love my decision-makers. I don't want to leave without any of them. I would be already dead without my reflexes. I would be puppet without my rationale. And without my emotions I would be a machine. \n\nWhat about you?",

A ballerina dancing on your desk, robo-worms coming out of your wall, or a dissected heart &nbsp;on your plate. You only need some gadgets to see these virtual objects. AR uses flat screens like tablets or mobile phones. Pokemon Go is a good example for this. MR provides an immersive experience but you need smart glasses for that.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bGHQvt7mnn8?rel=0&amp;start=60\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\n<p>The problems is that the virtual objects tend to forget their place. They fidget a little. A fraction of an inch at the time, but this can add up to feet over a longer period. This is still cool for the ballerina or a game, but can prevent industrial application of AR and MR. The stool on the below video shows exactly what I am talking about.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/1v8dB-O8KfU?start=15\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\n<p>I have noticed this issue with the following AR/MR platforms: Apple ARKit, Google ARCore and Microsoft HoloLens. I have no access to Magic Leap yet, but the video below looks promising (although the holograms <a href=\"https://skarredghost.com/2018/08/13/shower-thoughts-on-the-magic-leap-one/\">seem to be trembling</a>).&nbsp;</p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ziY5UVNKnas?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\n<p>So why don't virtual objects stick to real world coordinates? Spatial mapping and/or visual tracking seem to be the reason. What is spacial mapping? It is a method for the AR/MR devices for seeing the real world and creating cool videos like the one below.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/BC1k_18JUDk?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\n<p>So AR/MR devices use optical cameras and depth cameras to come up with all those triangles. This is how they see the real world. Then the gadgets are tracking our eyes. <a href=\"https://www.raeng.org.uk/publications/other/georg-klein-presentation-frontiers-of-engineering\"><em>\"Tracking works out where we are looking, so that graphics can be draw in the right place.\"</em></a> &nbsp;Unfortunately, the triangles and the tracking seem to loose some detail, hence the instability. &nbsp;See an interesting discussion <a href=\"https://forums.hololens.com/discussion/7385/reduce-shifting-of-holograms\">here</a>.</p>\n<p>So what's next? Will the virtual objects ever stick? Will HoloLens 2 fix this issue? Has Magic Leap already solved it?

      "body": "<html>\n<blockquote>the road to the <a href=\"https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/\">Matrix</a> (or at least a part of it) is paved with head mounted displays</blockquote>\n<p>Computers. Programmable devices getting smaller and more powerful each day, disrupting things high and low. They change our way of life, change our sense of reality. Programmers write the code which does that. And the two fundamental challenges of a programmer are to <a href=\"https://www.slideshare.net/pirhilton/how-to-name-things-the-hardest-problem-in-programming\">name things</a> and to <a href=\"http://thedailywtf.com/articles/the-hard-problem\">count things</a>. I am also a programmer and in this article I am trying to count the emerging &nbsp;illusion-technologies and the name concepts they are making real.</p>\n<h1>But what is reality?</h1>\n<p>Let's just boastfully ignore the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality\">philosophical considerations</a>, the scientific facts (no one saw the Higgs boson, still, we accept it to be real), religious and superstitious beliefs and the alternative realities.</p>\n<p>I would focus on the physical reality or at least at the perception of the physical reality, or at least what that means for the majority for us (oops, I'm color blind). Perception is the key. Our body is equipped with sensors and we use them to sense our physical environment, the physical reality we live in:</p>\n<ul>\n  <li>&nbsp;eyes: light or the lack of it</li>\n  <li>&nbsp;ears: sound and gravity</li>\n  <li>&nbsp;nose: smells</li>\n  <li>&nbsp;skin: heat and pressure</li>\n  <li>&nbsp;tongue: taste, heat and pressure</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Why am I narrowing the scope that much? Because all the augmented/virtual/mixed reality hype can be reduced to some tricks to fool a subset of our sensors (no, we do not get the full-featured fake reality experience from the Matrix - not yet).</p>\n<h1>The HMI Perspective</h1>\n<p><img src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Reality_check_ESA384313.jpg\" width=\"3264\" height=\"2448\"/>Starting with the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacquard_loom\">Jacquard loom</a> in 1804, machines needed interfaces through which their masters, the humans could control and operate them. Eliminating abstraction layers, human-machine interfaces (HMIs) evolved from punched cards to key boards, later the joy-stick and the mouse was invented. Then the mouse evolved into the pointing stick, touch-pad and the touch-screen. From this perspective, AR, VR and MR can be viewed as the logical next interface between men and machine. The benefits are imminent: hands-free, portable, non-tethered HMI.</p>\n<h1>XR (AR, VR, MR)?</h1>\n<p>Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR) are the hottest buzzword today. But the naming is misleading, as opposed to 3D printing, these technologies add nothing new to our physical reality. They trick our eyes and ears to fool our brain so it accepts virtual objects as real. And due to current technical advancements hacking our perception got better resulting \"seamless user experience\" and real time interaction with the virtual objects. I'll just call them XR, X standing for any of A, V or M.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d2/Adapted_milgrams_VR-AR_continuum.png\" width=\"1000\" height=\"581\"/></p>\n<p>As there are many fun and practical applications for XR, the developments are boosted and new devices are expected to swarm the the markets soon. But how are these \"realities\" different from each other?</p>\n<h2>VR<img src=\"https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaq1gt283FXPpaWWVnudbiJqBK8aRX16PwESyadFjErGs/image.png\" width=\"908\" height=\"572\"/></h2>\n<p>Let's start with the so called virtual reality headsets. They create the illusion of an artificial world around us by fooling our eyes based on head tracking data. They can partially fool our ears, as well by spacial sound tricks. But the total visual occlusion of the environment can cause nausea and dizziness. How they achieve that? By knowing where we look the the computers quickly generate (i.e. render) the images to be shown on the tiny screens built into the headset.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>AR</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/Augmented_Reality_for_eCommerce.jpg\" width=\"660\" height=\"367\"/></p>\n<p>Augmented reality can be considered more real and less dizzy as it creates the illusion of adding virtual objects to our real-real environment. Various devices can accomplish this, like mobile phones, AR headsets, Looking Glass, etc. As the virtual objects are added to the real environment the users do not get dizzy, like with the VR headsets, but the field of view is narrower, so large virtual objects seem to be viewed through a window.&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>MR</h2>\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/_xpI0JosYUk\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\n<p>Now this is a funny beast. At first it seems that Microsoft tried to brand its version of AR as mixed reality (MR). But if we listen to what they say about it it turns out that Microsoft has only labeled a subset of AR as MR: the immersive part. And its HoloLens is the best MR headset so far.</p>\n<h2>New realities: artificial and extended</h2>\n<p>Some companies exploring the business opportunities provided by VR/AR/MR refer to their services as extended or artificial reality services, but as one digs deeper it turns out that they have just came off with some marketing name for a package of plain old <em>XR</em>.&nbsp;</p>\n<h1>Applications</h1>\n<p>Beside gaming and porn there are many industries which can benefit from the applications of XR. I found the following to bear the highest potential and to be achievable in the near future.</p>\n<h2>Telepresence<img src=\"https://c1.staticflickr.com/6/5348/6944469180_d2817860bb_b.jpg\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\"/></h2>\n<p>The 3D version of Skype: you get to see the hologram of a person or an object, live or recorded. I prefer live streaming! Seems to be boring, but I have tried it once with HoloLens, and it is WOW! You have to try it to understand. The camera part was a plain old Kinect. Add virtual objects, document visualization, digital signature and you have the customer support service of the future!&nbsp;</p>\n<h2>Holo-Manipulation</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZ5KoaYzo7ddhiiTn8dNj2jwc3Ljtu15i8E7BUQz3m9Wz/image.png\" width=\"1100\" height=\"708\"/></p>\n<p>Manipulating 3D objects in CAD software is one thing, but the intuitive rotation, scaling, slicing of virtual 3D objects can be way better. Look inside objects, understand complex structures. Architects, engineers, designers can benefit a lot from this!</p>\n<h2>Remote Assistance, Holo-Assistance</h2>\n<p>3D Skype again, but this time the focus is on the real stuff. The remote assistant sees a 3D image of a real person or object, can give advices and even highlight parts of that object to the other person. As an example, the remote doctor can see the victim of an accident with a broken leg and can instruct someone to secure that, drawing exact markers on the leg, where to tie down an artery, where to bandage the wound, etc.</p>\n<h2>Object Recognition</h2>\n<p><img src=\"https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRExLYzia5GjSaXQD1az56eWHYNQJstSSCE9kMvhMfh51/image.png\" width=\"992\" height=\"618\"/></p>\n<p>AR and MR rely on accurate spacial mapping of the user's surroundings. This means that objects with specific features can be easily identified, highlighted and labeled to the user. Looking for a very special Lego piece in a huge bucket? Easy-peasy!</p>\n<h2>Holo-Construction</h2>\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/gNChTPE6N4o\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\n<p>Visualizing CAD designs got really cool and efficient with XR. The best of it is when a future building is shown in true scale at the exact location it will be built. Nothing can beat that!</p>\n<p><em>TL/DR: emerging XR technologies are fun, we just need to it figure out, how can we use them to get all </em><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_garbage_patch\"><em>that plastic</em></a><em> out of the oceans...</em></p>\n<p><strong>Disclosure: </strong>the author is a Mixed Reality consultant at <a href=\"https://360.world/\">360World</a>, an agency specialized in AR and MR solutions.</p>\n</html>",
