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.

Below are some videos promoting "Merged Reality" :

Thank you for your answer, as I said: "Can you show me a picture where the device works outside, and not in their ofice? I dont find outside usage image in their promo materials. "

Ok, I checked the (amateur users') outdoor youtube videos, and now I totally undarstand, why Microsoft does not promote the outdoor usage of the hololens:

- In direct sunligt it does not work too well. - you need shaded outdoor area for the normal quality.
- You have to walk around until the system learns the environment and stores it in the memory
- Memory limited by the size of the self-contained device which stores all the environment data
- As you can see the range of the spatial mapping is very small.

We can say, currently the Hololens technology is unsuitable for serious outddor usage.
This is why on the offical promo material you see only indoor usage of the hololens.

Additionally to the Mixed Reality vs Merged Reality:

Mixed reality sounds very techy (for geeks and nerds)
Merged Reality sounds more lifelike - maybe the real endusers (the families) will like it better
For me - as a foreigner - when I say merged, it sounds better, it is more interesting.

The concepts:
Mixed - the elements are mixed, but they will be always separated.
Merged: the elements unite into a single entity. They are not separable

On the concept level - Merged Reality is deeper and better description of this new dimension.
I think this is why Intel's CEO Brian Krzanich used the Merged Reality expression.

Other - hololens development - aspect: A lot of developer use Linux, they will not use hololens.
"Do you think that it would be possible to run GNU/Linux on HoloLens without some hardware hack, in let's say some reasonable time i.e. 1-2 years after the HL enters the market?" NO, withouth hardware hack.

PS: Dear Mods, I would like to join Mads: please move all my posts from here to thread -
Holo vs VR vs MR vs AR vs any other reality (All realities)

Can you share some of your merge reality domains?

This promotion reminds me of the lofty demonstrations VR designers would advertise in the 90's.

The expectations of what VR/Merged Reality can do, as displayed in this video, and beyond the scope of what technology today can produce... way beyond.

VR is only now starting to look like the promised VR of the 90's.

We will all have to wait 10-20 years to get anywhere near what that commercial just showed us.

So with 'merged reality' expect to register and hold your DN's until 2035.

Think that was just a promo video (advert) to get the concept out there and people buying into the idea of merged reality.

It was almost like a mini movie, would be surprised if many people believed that is how it will be.

If merged reality is to be a thing it will surface within the next few years and yes it will be nothing like that video

It is just a open source concept, that they are going to let other companies use to produce HMD's

The only real thing to take from the promo video imo is that they spent a lot of money to get the concept and term "merged reality" into public awareness.

But yes I do agree, we will have to wait a bit for the VR tech to potentially catch up with consumer expectations.

@orion Very interested to know what DN you picked...

 

[Elad n]

So basically the 'Mixed Reality Bedroom' video that was posted a few days ago is actually demonstrating 'Merged Reality'?

Its basically a niche inside VR. A new category of Mixed Reality ready devices.

" 'Merged reality' is next-level stuff:

Intel wants us to get used to hearing about yet another type of digitally enhanced reality:mergedreality.

by this time next year, all the major virtual reality brands could become "merged reality" brands."

Good job.

I don't think you should post "MR" domains here. Too confusing and whats the point of reposting the same old domains you\ve already did in the MR thread.

See you're point

But from the above article I posted two post's up, it's officially quoted "Merged Reality (MR)"

If this is just merged reality longtail I will contribute:

Merged Reality Cinema
Merged Reality Theatre
Merged Reality Trading
Adult Merged Reality

So merged reality is only a long tail?

 

[Elad n]

I registered only one Merged Reality domain:

MergedRealityNetwork / .com

Apple has AugmentedRealityNetwork / .com (after Metaio aquision)

Apple purchased Metaio on 2015 and got this domain on 2013 .

if its interesting then they also got

ARengine/AugmentedRealityEngine on 2006 .

MergedRealityEngine is still available for 3,2,1 ...

For all technolgoies one thing remains static is the Headset therefore I have opened a new page for it for people to showcase there Headset domains

[RevolutionaryDomains]

WhatIsMR

I'm pretty happy with this one. It can be used for MergedReality and/or MixedReality. That's why I left the long tails behind.

Speaking of, WhatIsMergedReality is still available for those still reg'n in this space.

Cheers!

In this article the author describes Google's stand alone headset as a "merged reality" concept....lots of terms being thrown around loosely during these early days of immersive industry development.

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

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

Project Alloy introduced a new term into our lexicon: “merged reality,” by which Intel really means something more like VR with some real world elements mixed in.
