The Future Of VR And AR
Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are possibly two of the biggest trends in the entire tech world. We saw the rise of VR in gaming applications and mapping software, but what is the future of this technology? How will Virtual Reality impact on our day to day life? Is it going to be a scary matter or is the technology just moving a bit too fast? Let's try to break down the subject in a simple way.
SLAM, The Future of VR
Simultaneous Localization And Mapping is the biggest focus when it comes to development at the minute: this technology is able to instantly translate data from the real world (by using sensors) into the virtual one and vice-versa. This avenue is currently studied by many different mobile app development companies, given the fact that Niantic based its success on a very embryonic version of SLAM, which was translating the surroundings into the app by using a floor algorithm (the same one that is generally used for QWERTY codes).
Simultaneous Localization And Mapping is currently used in TESLA's autopilot and summon, two core elements of the car's technology that let the vehicle process the surroundings in order to avoid crashes, understand how much battery is left and other vital pieces of information.
