I can see curren-gen VR and AR games leading to next-gen "real AR" glasses with an impact on far more than just gaming.
- ghgfhgfhn 7y agoCame here to say this. Ar is huge. It's the merging of the digital world with the real. Before we all disappear into our personally constructed digital nirvana, there will be an age where the two worlds become inextricably linked.bif I had enough money for stocks and shares I'd be heaping all my chips on AR. I have a few ideas for killer apps...

- dahdum 7y agoI see AR as having an enormous future impact, games only a small fraction of that. We jumped at the chance to escape reality into our phones, but AR is far more seductive. VR limits your mobility, but AR can be used every waking hour. I see it starting with small tweaks to reality...a dingy concrete sidewalk replaced with a golden brick road. Empty walls in an apartment awash with art, scenic views, and/or entertainment.
