The Unity platform makes it simple to connect BIM data, various viewpoints, and even spatial audio into a virtualenvironment for AEC employees. MagicLeap. As companies in the AEC space continue to invest in tools capable of combining real-world environments with digital technology, MagicLeap is growing in popularity.
The short demo showed him explaining various aspects of the COVID-19 virus to his colleagues – who were physically thousands of miles away – in a virtualenvironment. I came across his work recently when a video on Twitter caught my attention. Collaboration tools in the spotlight. The right place at the right time.
Blending VR and AI in the New World For example, the travel, tourism, and healthcare sectors have leveraged AI virtual assistants to guide people in virtualenvironments. Dubai’s Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) began including virtual and real assistants on its metaverse healthcare portal.

According to him, the technology can be used for training and delivering first-hand experiences to learners. AR Apps to Increasingly Leverage AI Tech To create more immersive virtualenvironments, AR applications must be able to collect a wealth of information about the user’s surroundings.
A headset that uses virtual screens could be an enterprise AR solution without being collaborative, as could a training software that a user employs on their own non-connected device. The platform, which won last year’s Auggie Award for Best Enterprise Solution, is compatible with MR headsets like HoloLens and MagicLeap.
Until recently, Brian Kane has been highlighting more experiential demos - like one that puts a porthole to the ocean in your living room - to highlight the power of the MagicLeap, and of spatial computing in general. MagicLeap is one of these MagicLeap devices, you put it on, and your whole world is spatial computing.
One of the areas where XR is seeing the most significant and rapid adoption, is in the world of education and training. Here, universities, schools, and training companies are embracing the experiential benefits of immersive XR technology to deliver lessons like never before. Meta Oculus and Aptiv. HTC Vive and Penn State.
The German auto manufacturer evaluates design features in virtual reality before building prototypes in actual reality, using the famous high-quality physics-based rendering power of Unreal for the game engine and using the HTC Vive for the VR hardware. DOCTORS IN OHIO USE VR TO TRAIN FOR TRAUMA CARE. INVESTMENT & FUNDING WRAPUP.
The hope is that the interactivity and training will lead to increased purchase conversion. Lowe’s says that early versions of a similar VR training program for employees led to a 127% increase in confidence compared to traditional training procedures — they are hoping to bring these same results to the customer space.
The Future of MagicLeap After Ross Rosenberg was appointed MagicLeap’s CEO in October 2023, the company has since focused on its enterprise roadmap for 2024; targeting its XR devices towards enterprise and industrial clients. MagicLeap started to understand that these walled gardens are not their future.
Via spatial audio, companies can create an immersive interactive environment where it’s possible to detect where sound is coming from in a 3-dimensional space. Spatial audio can enhance collaboration, improve training opportunities, and pave the way for new brand/consumer interactions. MagicLeap.
Both AR and VR are being used to train employees in this example, but the former is being used in the field, while the latter is being used to train employees before they even start their job. The Oculus Go and Oculus Quest and Varjo and Vive all make you feel like you’re immersed in an environment.
One of the best use cases for XR technologies is training and enterprise solutions, as long-time listeners know. You just-- there's very little training in terms of understanding a new way to interact with a new UI. So we see a lot of people also using tablets or phones or PCs to do the same training and be networked across devices.

For example, if I’m going through some sort of instruction or training exercise where my environment really matters, then we can understand why it might be important to jump into a VR headset and limit the distraction from the real environment around me, and replace it with an entirely virtualenvironment.

Morton Helig’s 1962 patent describes a system that delivers a realistic simulation for potential work and military training purposes: There are increasing demands today for ways and means to teach and train individuals without actually subjecting the individuals to possible hazards of particular situations.
Meta is Licensing MagicLeap This week, rumours revealed that Meta might acquire MagicLeap licensing rights for upcoming XR hardware. Meta looks to ink a deal with MagicLeap to share intellectual property licencing and contract manufacturing to create AR-based solutions.
Nuclear energy is no joke, and to train to work in the field can be risky and costly… unless you’re training in a virtualenvironment. Alan and Vice discuss the pros and…well, are there really any cons to non-radioactive training simulations? How do you start training people in VR for nuclear facilities?

I’d say that through at least 2022, the enterprise will account for the majority of augmented and mixed reality headsets like Hololens and MagicLeap. But I’ve seen some talk of doing things like airline flight crews being able to train flight attendants, training through those sorts of headsets.

A lot of what I do is try to take new and emerging technology -- obviously right now, VR/AR/XR; all that falls into it -- and using that to enhance messaging and storytelling, training, simulation, all of that type of stuff. You have the presence, for things like training, for things like real-time engineering.

So, as we begin to work with MagicLeap and Hololens and some of these others, and you’re able to do hands-free, and the headsets become able to be worn for longer periods, et cetera, et cetera, we expect that to increase over time. You cannot dispute the fact that virtual and augmented reality training makes good business sense.

FRL is releasing interesting material for AI training. Facebook Reality Labs , the research center of Facebook, is releasing opensource some tools that it has created to train AI agents in virtual reality. When you have to train an intelligent agent for the real world (e.g. PTC has made some announcements.
It was a multiplayer training experience about work safety where I (the trainer) could do the experience in VR and all other people could watch me while I did it. This was the best feature for me: it was really like all of us were in this virtualenvironment, all together. As soon as our guide asked “who wants to try it?”
I just know about Neal Stephenson because he was “Chief Futurist Wizard” at MagicLeap and that the company with him as a Wizard has gone close to bankruptcy (probably he made the wrong spell as a wizard). to entice people to train every day). A funny video about Facebook in real life.
Boz has added that he doesn’t want to overhype these devices (to avoid the same error made by MagicLeap), and so he has confirmed that they are not AR glasses, but just smartglasses. Thanks to it, you can preview your filters on the fly in a virtual smartphone that you can see in a suitable virtualenvironment.
This attitude makes me understand that Facebook won’t release an all-in-two headset with a cable like the MagicLeap One, and will always go for an untethered approach. And what about the ongoing training? Also Aria is untethered but it works together with an external box. Privacy in AR.
Bumpy Road For MagicLeap. MagicLeap then announced it was pivoting towards enterprise customers following damning reports of extremely weak sales. Training for Just About Anything. As the year draws to a close, things are looking rather worrisome for what is arguably immersive tech’s most hyped-up company.
