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.
