| 題目(Title)：
| Augmented Human: beyond VR and AR |
| 概要(Abstract)： |
Recently, Both Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) have been attracting attention as a new medium that extends human ability beyond time and space. In this talk I will describe the potential of VR/AR as a new platform combined with Internet of Things (IoT), Big data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Linked Open Data (LoD) and 3D maps. In addition, I will explain key technical challenges to realize various applications of 'reality - virtuality coexistence' in everyday life. Finally, I will share my perspective on the future of VR/AR in terms of Augmented Human (AH) that extends the physical, intellectual and social capabilities of the human. |
