I'm starting the official Mixed Reality thread. With Microsoft and others pushing for this phrase some of us are hoping to benefit. This is where we discuss and show case our domains.

My domains:

MixedRealityTours

Just some thoughts about when this mixed reality tech will hit the stores. The SEO of Microsoft was calling it in a recent interview a 5 year journey for the HoloLens. Not expecting a launch for consumers before 2019 / 2020. Developer price of $3000+. By far not interesting for consumers.

I don't want to be a bringer of bad news but for most MR domains it will be years from now before there is a actual consumer market / interest from end users. I don't know how far Magic Leap is but if the roadmap is comparable with Microsoft it will take time / years. And even when the glasses are hitting the stores there must be enough software / games to be worthy buying.

I really have MR and Holo domains for the future. I am hoping my VR network is strong enough to generate a steady revenue next year. VR gambling market is still very small (i am making a big loss on this for 2 straight years already) but i know the potential and have been succesfull a couple of years ago with promoting casino. This is the reason i take the beating / losses and still keep on renewing my VR gambling domains. VR adult market is my backbone i ques for revenue / affiliate / domain sales. But there must be a strong rise in traffic to get a ROI. VR adult traffic is rising but not enough to be impressed. I hope the market explodes the next months.

But i keep being positive for a big end user sale somewhere the next months.

I like to add. Even when we are years away from a mixed reality device hitting the stores we all know domainers are regging tech domains years before and are speculating / investing. I have seen this for Holo+Keyword domains most are regged between 2009 and 2011 and some as early as 2003. It is a difficult situation because you must be willing to renewal years before getting a ROI but when you don't reg somebody else will do.

It's all part of the domain game, if you handreg future tech domains you will have to sit and wait.

Research, register premium stuff, buy cheap and wait.

It wont take 5 years, stuff is happening much faster @Type-In ;)

I follow someone who gets quite a bit of inside information, and gets to meet lots of companies in the tech world.

2017 - 2018 is going to be big years for mixed reality.

What you have to remember is most of these companies work in large elements of secrecy.

This person receives large amounts of inside information. Microsofts hololens is well documented to have FOV problems, be too heavy and they are doing the right thing refining this device.

But they are working on cheaper mixed reality solutions through partners that will hit the market next year.

Some have doubts if Hololens will ever get a consumer release.

If the ceo says the hololens is 5 years away from a consumer release then he's doing the right thing not trying to push a product out when it is nowhere near ready for consumer adaption.

I think the truth is many competitors have took a differen't approach in the tech they have used and have found a balance of getting a better FOV and weight before Microsoft.

Microsoft were pretty much early in the game of producing a mixed reality headset, truth is others who have come in after have found different components and techniques.

Worth noting the same ceo said mixed reality will be brought to consumers in 2017 when it was announce it will be selling products made by partners.

2017 has also been a year mentioned for a suprise magic leap roll-out. They have been employing a lot for mass production which is a move a company will make only when they are getting to the stage to produce products in mass pending a launch.

My view is 2017-2018 are massive years for mixed reality. The problem is with the hololens as a product, not mixed reality as a tech ;)

Microsoft are working very hard getting companies to produce content for their device, once it is released there will be lots of content for consumers to choose from. The same can be said of magic leap, they have sealed some pretty big contracts within the sports industry and big movie companies. They hired a really well renowned game developer or wizard as they like to refer to him.

Every single person who gets their hands on magic leaps headset got to sign a disclamer form. Nothing gets out publicly unless they want it to.

As said lots of this stuff is happening behind the scenes.

Yeah, I think 5 years is very pessimistic. HoloLens might be some way off mainstream but Microsoft are certainly going to push cheaper MR headsets using Windows Holographic over the next 12 months.

There is also this - a cardboard MR headset : http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/...tyle-30-mixed-reality-alternative-to-hololens

As far as Holo names are concerned there are already dozens of VR companies choosing to brand themselves as Holo something, so there really is no stress in renewing Holo names.

Remember as well mate just because Hololens might be a bit away from a public release does not mean that it won't become an integral part of many organisations before that.

Companies in Healthcare, Education, Construction etc ... are using the Hololens to advance their businesses already.

Developers are actively producing programs as we speak specifically for the Hololens.

Just because it might not be case perfect as it currently stands as a gaming device does not mean that it will not be an important addition to many commercial businesses.

And your right, there will be companies wanting to brand themselves specifically.

Some will go for VR, AR, MR or Holo.

A quality diversified portfolio is the best advice I can give anyone.

Don't go too deep into just one specific niche, but have quality diversifed across 4 niches.

That way you are covered ;)

i wouldnt worry about renewing MR names as well as long as they are with quality keywords.

Thank you for taking the time for this and the other quality post.

Very interesting points you made.

Minimum Specs for Microsoft’s Windows 10 AR/VR Interface Are Impressively Low

http://www.roadtovr.com/windows-10-holographic-minimum-specs-low-microsoft/

Among other things, these specs imply a PC that could be running with hardware as low as the 2009 AMD Anthlon II series (some have 4 cores) and 2010 Nvidia GT 400 series (some support DX12). And what that means is a very cheap PC, that may also be ancient by today’s standards. If these specs are all that’s required to run Windows Holographic, even many lower-end laptops should work, compared to what would be required for an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive.

Back at the company’s announcement Windows 10 Holographic earlier this year, Microsoft did indeed say that the experience would enable “mainstream PCs to run the Windows Holographic shell and associated mixed reality and universal Windows applications” (our emphasis). The company claimed to be running what’s seen in the demo video above at 90 FPS on a tiny Intel NUC with integrated graphics.

This information reveals it is indeed (just like NamePov was saying) possible we can see very soon the launch of cheap AR glasses before the high-end MR ones. The system specs will be very low compared to Ocules and Vive. But it will be even better if they can produce a cheap MR device with wires and lower (cheaper) quality parts to start the revolution (just like GearVR).

Worth also noting if you are searching google there are huge amounts of articles saying VR and AR is the future.

This is to be expected at the moment because no company has yet done a push for mixed reality.

But some pretty big companies are clarifying their tech is not AR it is Mixed Reality (MR)

Just remember this little equasion guys

VR + AR = MR ;)

Mixed Reality is a new format. It doesn't do just VR or AR. It combines elements of both and creates a new reality that interacts with the world around us.

You have to hope it sticks though, I know Apple are all about Augmented Reality, believe it is going to be bigger than Virtual Reality and Apple have confirmed they are making an “Augmented Reality headset” and a headset of Augmented Reality is what Microsoft call ‘Mixed Reality’.

https://mspoweruser.com/bloomberg-confirms-apple-developing-augmented-reality-headset

Even that article calls HoloLens Augmented Reality :banghead: lol. I've tried to give Mixed Reality a chance but for me there’s just too much confusion around the term 'Mixed Reality' to investable other than registrations.

Augmented Reality is investable because you know that term has a future even if an Augmented Reality headset is not called ‘Augmented Reality’ as Augmented Reality through your smartphone (like Pokemon Go) will be called ‘Augmented Reality’.

Big question mark is the term ‘Mixed Reality’ - Does that have a future? It's ok saying Microsoft and MagicLeap call it 'Mixed Reality', Apple call it Augmented Reality though and a lot of other companies/people do too more so than they do 'Mixed Reality' if Google trends and Twitter search is anything to go by.

I hope I'm wrong, honestly do mate.

I want to see everyone do well on here, be fantastic if we can all look back in 5-10 years and say we done well.

But as of now, if people who knows about this stuff are confused and 2 of the biggest companies on earth have 2 different terms what they call the same tech, it doesn't hold well for a random member of the public buying one of these headsets for their son or grandson in 5 years does it?

There has to be a collective agreement what everything is called and that means either Microsoft or Apple are going to have to adapt to the other and that's not going to be easy.

MR is going to be the dark horse, Hints are all over the place, but i dont wanna do it here.
Lets leave the AR MR talk to the other thread or private talks.

If you know Apple are all about "just" AR you have hit the jackpot mate :)

Go in hard on AR because I can guarantee that whatever term Apple goes for will instantly become the "in thing".

Just this little warning though. I am pretty confident from my research that Apple are not all in on AR.

To be honest I will be suprised if they come out and say this tech is AR or MR. They are very likely to try and create their own market.

The source I go by knows apple insiders and they have confirmed Apple are working on a mixed reality device/glasses. I asked him do you think they will brand themselves differently from their competition?

His answer was yes, just like they did with "Retina"

Apple are such a secretive company. By tim quoting they are interested in AR over VR is the obvious statement to make. That doesn't mean that Apple are all in on AR ;)

More then that lol, at the moment cook said AR is bigger then VR and AR is something we are into i knew they wont brand as AR. Im not sure they will brand with something specific but focus on giving the best experiences

Oh, now im sucked into it lol.

Think windows 10, then think MR
Then think mass adoption.
Think Magic leap, think a company that is making an independent os and supply chain with more then 2 billion investment and its not over.
Think ML trademarks and their big focus
Think tons of big companies using hololens as a industrial device and embracing MR, think Studios working with hololens embracing MR.
Think silent startups working on MR (i know about a lot, its just quiet like it should be.
Its not 2 companies, its just silent mode ;) but its boiling slowly.

Besides MR is not AR.
MR is the combo.

Maybe it's AR (Apple Reality) vs. MR (Microsoft Reality). :)

From a linguist point of view "mixed" is shorter and easier to pronounce than "augmented". Mixed might appear more logical..who the hell actually knows what "augmented" means and that is derived from the Latin verb "augmentare" (at least should be)?

But after all it's also about marketing and branding, so time will tell.

AR is not mixed reality.

Mixed Reality is not AR.

They are two different tech's.

People are seeing AR at the moment because it is a tech that can be achieved with a smart phone and a current tech that is being pushed!

The public have yet to see mixed reality so far. Unless they purchased the $3000 microsoft developer addition, which in it's current position would be pointless.

No company is making a current push for MR, but it is a future tech that is planned to be pushed in 2017-2018.

I was reading the AR thread only earlier today and someone experience was saying in 2015 the term AR won't come to anything as the correct term is "Holo". That is how quickly trends can change.

People keep saying companies are calling mixed reality AR. Mixed Reality has not even been pushed as yet.

AR will have successful uses. But there is a massive difference between AR & MR.

I am in no way against AR. I have recently been making a few aftermarket purchases and have my fingers crossed AR will take off big ;)
