00:00 Outlook Business Tech Talk with Manish Sinha. A show that talks about technology, the universe,

00:08 artificial intelligence, virtual reality, quantum mechanics and all kinds of innovation.

00:17 Let's dive into the world of science. Getting lost in reality, extended reality with 240 degree

00:36 field of view. That is a hair raising experience. Hair raising, got it? You did. Now let me take

00:43 you to a world which will give you that figurative hair raising experience and also some goosebumps.

00:49 I'm talking about extended reality with generative AI coming close to beautifully panoramic headgear

00:57 displays that make you feel like you're actually in the scene. The time has come for us to feel

01:04 things much better than we have ever done before. Just one month ago at the Augmented World Expo

01:11 AWE 2023, we saw how generative AI can be combined with augmented reality to create real world NPCs,

01:20 non-player characters. Yes gamers, we have NPCs for real. Hell yeah. The interesting thing is that

01:29 robots and extended reality will give the user interface for generative AI. So you'd actually see

01:37 large language models like chat GPT speak with a real body. Just like how the CEO of AWE fooled us

01:46 with his AR doppelganger at the AWE 2023. We almost got fooled. So there's a lot of new headgear,

01:56 you know, VR headgear above the class of Oculus Rift, Apple EyeSight and even MagiCleap. In the

02:03 show more than 100 were on display and so many of them were there for the first time. Here are my

02:10 top five mentions. Number one, the ultra thin display from Buzik. These glasses are so thin

02:18 they look like normal glasses and they're wireless so you can wear them and move around anywhere.

02:22 Plus no compute on them. All the computers sitting in a separate device somewhere on your body.

02:27 So you can go around and see things as if you are normally watching them and there are stereoscopic

02:33 cameras that can live stream what you are seeing to anyone. Fabulous, isn't it? One problem, these

02:39 are monochrome screens with very low resolution. The resolution problem is solved by the number

02:45 two on the list, the Digilens Argo. This one has 4k resolutions in each of the eyes with full color.

02:53 You know, there's one problem with this one too, a small field of vision. Very beautiful,

02:58 but you can't see all across. The third one on the list, the HyperVision 240, solves that field

03:05 of vision problem. From a small screen you get a 240 degree screen. Pretty much you can shift your

03:12 eyes without tilting your head. That's what you get with 4k screens, two on each eye. So you're

03:20 effectively getting a 16k resolution and you feel like you're exactly in the space because you don't

03:28 have to twist your head, just roll your eyes. That's how the HyperVision 240 works. Each of

03:35 the three that we talked about were commercial grade and really useful for applications. But,

03:41 you know, sometimes you wonder what will developers do? You know, these are very expensive and the

03:46 best developers can't afford too many of them. There comes in item number four on our list,

03:51 the Monocle from Brilliant Labs. While it is not a fully developed product because you can

03:57 stick it like a little lens on your glasses, it works beautifully because it is only $349

04:03 or 29,000 rupees and you can add, remove things in it and use it for a great testing purpose.

04:11 Just like the students at Stanford University did when they coupled an AR headset with ChatGPD

04:18 and in real time helped people both understand and respond as if they were supported by their

04:26 own personal assistant, the ChatGPD. So we talked about all the things in the world of extended

04:32 reality that are about vision. Thin glasses, colorful glasses, peripheral vision, 16k view.

04:39 But, you know, it's not just about seeing, it's also about feeling. The next one on the list is

04:45 Exit Suit. You know, the beauty of this one is it is a custom designed suit for your body so that

04:50 you can actually feel your body in this extended reality world. A suit that actually makes a full

04:57 exoskeleton from your hands to your legs to your entire spinal cord and your head. And it gives you

05:05 the feeling of flying and walking inside this world. With mini actuators and haptics, you actually

05:13 feel the objects you see. Move over movies, feelies are here. And that is what Aldous Huxley

05:20 imagined for the brave new world that we are entering.
