LOL...
If I though anything that I held was a 'Great Domain' I certainly would not mention it here !
I'm sure it will find a home. And the waiting is the hardest part.
That song should be a domain'rs theme song.

It's weird how a lot of the 60's/70's sci-fi predictions are finally coming true around the same time half-a-century later. For 20 years the only real sci-fi type advances seemed to be Facebook and the iPhone and now suddenly we have crazy robots (and even sexbots), holograms set to be everywhere (at least AR), and even real talk about colonizing Mars.

Just what I was mentioning a few pages ago about VR being used in RC robotics.
VRrobotics
But that article was nice and comprehensive.

BTW, I have used the rift DK1 shortly after release on UAV's.
Just had to de-skew the video. Screen effect annoying but the big picture was worth it.
It has been the norm for most cutting edge systems the past few years.
And will be the norm for consumer toys very soon.
My system has a heads up display that would make you think you were flying a jet fighter.
Very cool but all that HUD has needed data that makes flying long and tricky a breeze.

Also...
I had mentioned last week that I was watching for major VR advertising to start this week and I was seeing it introduce itself as I was watching sports on Sat & Sun. But this weekend should surpass that by 2X.
Just a needed milestone we have passed as this comes to be.
But I am wondering if anyone noticed WMR / Rift / Vive advertising online.
That I have not noticed since I block most of it and others stuff I have had myself trained to ignore.

Probably the best example of VR Robotics so far.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I own VRTelepresence in King.

Another interesting holo article. If the general trend for LightField displays is to brand as 'holo' then holo names have a very bright future indeed :

It's really annoying how much cheaper tech products are in the USA to UK/Europe. The best I can find for the UK is £599 on Amazon.co.uk which is about $799!!! https://www.amazon.co.uk/LENOVO-Explorer-Reality-Headset-Controllers/dp/B0764L8YL7/

I am getting a lot of VR adverts show on websites but that is because I was searching on Amazon for headsets the other day. I am also seeing lots of ads for running shoes as I searched for them as well last week. So I really don't know. All the ads I've seen appear to be of that 'tracking' type.

At least search interest in key phrases such as 'best vr headset' seem to be finally going up, although still way down on this time last year : https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=best vr headset

Yeah, I saw that. I was thinking of getting the HP as it seems the best one other than the Odyssey. Hope it is still on sale for when I come back to London next week.

Yes, they seem to be the big early bird on ads, but I really think these next 2 weeks will be a milestone.
(or a kilometerstone for those not in the US LOL )

Back on the topic of Apple's acquisition, I have been looking at the exact reason for the buy-out.
Many times, they do it for patents and other times they want the talent withing and yet others may have production facilities or assets that are helpful.
I am digging to find the assets they were looking at. It may give us some insight to the form of future products. But the case is strong for the display tech.
