showcase Merged Reality Domain Showcase

[Winfluence]

Not sure where Merged Reality is going and how successful the term will become in the coming years, but it's good to start this thread in case more domain investors dabble in this tech "just in case".

I politely ask that NPers be positive and please direct any debates about the differences between Merged Reality and other "Realities" to another thread. It's now Aug. 2016! Cheers! And please remember to do your own research before investing names in ANY industry.

they defined it on august 16 , the day they launched it .

Don't shoot the messenger Elad lol

In all fairness I should have checked the date but I do believe it is a good description that many in this thread might not have seen before.

they defined it on august 16 , the day they launched it .

I would like to explain my delay:

First I have seen this info on the au site:
http://iq.intel.com.au/what-the-tech-12-tech-terms-to-know-now/

The publishing date on the au site was September 2, 2016.
I was delighted to see a new essential info about Merged Reality and I linked the com site, withouth checking the different date, my bad.

I received an offer for all five of my Merged Reality domains. To be honest, I don't see the point in valuating a price in this niche, because there's only a perceived possibility of a niche even occuring. The actual niche doesn't exist yet and Wintel has revealed very little about were they're going with it. So I don't think it's very productive to sell at this point, unless you have some shitty Merged Reality domains that you shouldn't have bought in the first place.

Intel Acquires Movidius To Accelerate 'Computer Vision' Development'

Giving 'Sight to Smart Devices'

"The ability to track, navigate, map and recognize both scenes and objects using Movidius' low-power and high-performance SoCs [systems on chips] opens opportunities in areas where heat, battery life and form factors are key," Josh Walden, senior vice president and general manager of Intel's New Technology Group, wrote in a blog post yesterday. "Specifically, we will look to deploy the technology across our efforts in augmented, virtual and merged reality (AR/VR/MR), drones, robotics, digital security cameras and beyond."

Since I posted in this thread earlier, had an e-mail offering me $20 (lol) and had a pm from a NamePros member offering me $1500 for it. When I explained if I sold for that, I’d be taking a loss, they then offered to give me whatever I paid for it plus 50%, I kindly declined, but fair play, thought it was a good offer.

Can easy see how people make a living domaining full-time though, I’ve only been investing in the aftermarket since the start of the year, but working out all the offers I’ve received; I probably could have paid my yearly salary if sold them.

Just my

If you also added to the equation the money you spent buying domains then well done, you are in a good situation

Just wish my hand-regs had more offers

Thinking about it, while i dont believe mergedreality+keyword will have a future, mergedreality.com might be a good purchase(again depends on the price) as mergedreality term even if wont represent a technology is a something that that relates to this future mixed world we are facing.

That's what i thought when i regged MergingReality/MergingRealities 9 months ago and even when i bought Merged, I do it with all my aftermarket buys. Weigh everything up, think of worst case and ask yourself could it still represent something even if what you originally bought it for doesn't go as planned.

Also don't count out MergedRealityKeyword names, the term as huge backing by Intel, Microsoft are also supporting it and as you can see by reading this thread, MergedRealityKeyword names have been getting offers, so potential market is there.

So yeah, the first 'Merged Reality' start-up company I've come across. Something to keep an eye on.

Google reportedly building eye-tracking headset that mixes VR with the real world

From the sounds of it, this merged reality concept seems to resemble that of Microsoft's HoloLens, though we know very little about Google's plans for this product and what features it will offer. The report reveals that some components powering Google's futuristic device are being provided by Movidius, the computer vision company that Intel is acquiring for an undisclosed sum.

they are still confused .. most tech editors dont really know their stuff yet.

they will be educated slowly lol , its all about exposure.

Intel shows off new Project Alloy headset for “merged reality”, to ship in Q4

CES 2017

Intel showed off its first version of the Project Alloy headset, a new wearable computer that it describes as its foray into “merged reality” — a combination of virtual reality mixed with augmented reality. In this case, it will deliver both video content that will immerse you, and augmented reality that will project images of some of that content directly into whatever room you happen to be in.

Project Alloy will start to ship in Q4 of this year, Intel CEO Brian Krzanich announced during a keynote at CES in Las Vegas today. This is a relatively quick turnaround for a headset and project that was only made public in August of this year.

Here’s another take on it:-

http://uploadvr.com/project-alloy-merged-reality-q4-2017/

I watched the conference live and as one the comments pointed out in the article above the environment scanning was impressive.

I think expecting to hear more though, like hear Krzanich talk about ‘why’ Merged Reality is a new reality and what makes it so different.

He seemed to talk about it more in his blog afterwards, in how Merged Reality goes beyond Pokémon Go’s AR:-

https://newsroom.intel.com/editorials/virtual-reality-new-worlds-opportunity-travel-work-play/

But yeah would have been great to hear that at the conference more so than his blog as I think that’s the key here to make the term a success, promoting 'why' Merged Reality is a new reality and how it’s VR/AR (MR) all ‘merged’ together to form something completely different.

To be honest though, the fact Intel are still even using the term merged reality at this stage should instill a bit of confidence.

I was worried they might drop the term, but the fact they are still trying to promote it at this stage shows that they do have plans to try and make this term stick.

And as domainers invested into this niche, that is all we can hope for at this stage

Impressive demos. Wish they showed more of this at Krzanich's conference – Can imagine something like this working with Haptic technology in the future (so you can feel the balloons).

Who here has Merged Reality Casino and Poker?

 

[Winfluence]

Merged reality GF will be gone soon.

 

[Winfluence]

I really hope that Intel and it's partners in Project Alloy don't abandon this term after hyping it like that lol. It's only a matter of time before Apple and Microsoft release their non-AR, non-MixedReality headsets. Will be interesting to see what terminologies they use.

Merge wont stay imo, not a lot of chances.
Microsoft non MR?

Can't understand how I changed threads by only refreshing the page.
Especially since I never visited the page from link or search.

My apologies to anyone offended.

No problem! Like I said, I've made the same mistake before. No worries. Life is good! Moving right along!

 

[Winfluence]

No I do believe that Intel fully intends to make merged reality a keyword.

They want to differentiate the tech as a step beyond vr in the same way that magic leap and Microsoft want to.

Everything essentially could be classed as a type of VR but these companies want to use emerging technologies keywords to set themselves apart from competition.

Intel had the option to class themselves as VR, could have probably got away with classing themselves as a type of mixed reality.

But they chose to use the term merged reality in their speech, promotional videos etc etc

They fully intend on trying to establish this keyword to the public and tech world which they have partly done imo.

You're preaching to the choir my friend. All agreed!
