您是否想過在考古現場的壕溝中查看數碼3D考古模型？請閱讀我們在《考古學電腦應用期刊》(#JCAA) 中關於在考古現場中使用混合現實和擴增實境 (#MR/#AR) 的文章！我們的實驗使用了三種裝置：Vuzix Blade 2 AR 智慧眼鏡、Microsoft #HoloLens2 和 @Meta #QuestPro MR 耳機。這些實驗旨在透過免持的資料收集、使用 3D 模型進行地層比較、挖掘深度引導系統和虛擬陶器重建，來提高考古現場的工作效率和準確性。我們的研究結果凸顯了 MR/AR 技術在改變考古實踐方面的巨大潛力。我們對未來的願景是，有一天，這些工具將為考古學家提供增強的視覺和數據互動能力，最終推動該領域的發展。 在不到3個月的時間裡，我們的文章已經有超過3000次瀏覽，感謝您有興趣與我們一起探索數碼考古的未來！

I have posted multiple times on the futility of VR head mounted devices beyond VERY niche use cases. Latest news - death knell has been sounded for Microsoft's HoloLens 2 headset. Related IVAS program with the US Army seems destined to flame out. https://africa.businessinsider.com/news/microsoft-lost-billions-of-dollars-on-hololens-and-its-huge-ivas-military-contract-is/symf9vy #AR #VR #Hololens #IVAS #usarmy #DoD

Lilbits: Pixel 9a pictures and Apple’s smart display plans leaked, Thunderbird for Android Beta is here, and Adobe adds AI to its entry-level photo and video apps

Google’s next mid-range phone could look a little different. Adobe is bringing AI features to its entry-level versions of Photoshop and Premiere. Apple may be planning to launch two smart displays. And the first public beta of the new Thunderbird email app for Android is here… although it’s really just a Thunderbird-branded version of an existing email client.

Here’s a roundup of recent […]

Rice University scientists used a commercially available mixed-reality headset with custom-designed software to measure and analyze forest floor #vegetation, demonstrating a correlation between #animal diversity and the mapped habitat of a #Tanzanian national park.

Kotz-Fluch gebrochen? US-Armee lobt Microsoft HoloLens für Soldaten #HoloLens #IVAS #USArmy #AR #Headset #AugmentedReality #Microsoft https://winfuture.de/news,138466.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

@stroughtonsmith Both #GoogleGlasses and #Hololens were AR-first devices and I think #GoogleGlasses are almost even more forgotten now.

I think I prefer the Google Glass concept for an AR future to the Vision Pro concept. The less obstructed the face is the better.

Kopfschmerzen und Übelkeit sind nur einige Nebenwirkungen, die beim Einsatz der #HoloLens von #Microsoft beim US-Militär auftraten. Dennoch hält man an dem Projekt #IVAS fest: https://winfuture.de/news,135951.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

Die US-Armee testet schon länger spezielle #HoloLens-Headsets namens #IVAS. Doch bisher läuft das alles andere als gut und deshalb sagte die US-Politik nun nein zu neuen Investitionen - vorerst jedenfalls. https://winfuture.de/news,134018.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia

NeRFs are a game changer for 3D content creation. 🤩

My latest demo used a smartphone video which I run through Luma Labs NeRF #AI, exported a 3D model and rendered the large, detailed model in real-time on the HoloLens with Azure Remote Rendering.

Building Metaverse Apps for Cultural Heritage

I had the pleasure to talk with my fellow MR MVP Zaid Zaim about his story and how he brought the cultural heritage of destroyed sites like the UNESCO city of Palmyra in Syria back to life with Mixed Reality. 👉 https://valoremreply.com/post/meta-minutes-building-metaverse-apps-for-cultural-heritage/?utm_source=social_media&utm_medium=Rene-Reshare&utm_campaign=metaminutes

#Introductions

I'm Avi. I've been working on #SpatialComputing (VR,AR,XR,MR, Metaverse) tech and design since 1992. #Consulting. Also worked at #Microsoft (started #Hololens), #Amazon (#EchoFrames & #PrimeAir), #Apple (NDA), and #Disney. I cofounded #Keyhole (#GoogleEarth) and built parts of #SecondLife.

I tend to write about #XR and the #future, #politics and #ethics.

We started a group for professionals in #XR to improve ethics, called the #XRGuild. Check out https://www.xrguild.org

Hi all- Like a lot of folks I'm just moving over to Mastodon and hoping to find my folks. I am at #CWRU in #Cleveland working in #radiology on #MRI. I'm also the faculty director at the #interactivecommons working in #MixedReality using mostly #HoloLens (among other things.) I'm passionate about helping young people find their way through this messy world and trying to develop technologies to make their lives better. Looking forward to seeing how this all turns out! #introductions

Time for an #introduction for me:
Today, I am on the Preventive and Detective side of #infosec. Very blueish and definetely not red team..
Besides having a broad overview (just like everyone here needs to have) and doing lots of consulting for ISO 27001 and similar, I have a deep technical knowledge in #Fortinet products. I live in south Germany.

However:
As a kid, I wanted to be a filmmaker, so I went straight forward into film industry, doing #VFX, mostly for commercials (still member of the global Visual Effects Society #VES). Passionate about everything computer related, I grew into software development as well, doing crazy #VR, #AR and "MR" stuff (being one of the first devs in Germany getting my hands on Microsoft #HoloLens).
Then, I thought about family life and found out, that children and supervisor roles in film industry don't match. So, I turned around and used my dev-experience to move towards cybersecurity. Being at the right spot (meaning *not* in a SOC), career and my two little daughters are "in harmony" now :D

I am not sure about how often I will post something here, but I look forward to reading a lot of interesting stuff and join conversations.
