Spatial Computing
Spatial computing is a technology that combines the physical and digital worlds. It uses devices like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets to create interactive 3D environments.
How it works
- Computer vision: Analyzes visual data to understand the layout of physical spaces
- Generative AI: Transforms 2D images into 3D animations
- Spatial sound: Enhances the immersion of the experience
Use cases
- Training: Simulates high-risk tasks to enhance muscle memory and neural connections
- Planning: Visualizes impacts and explores scenarios to minimize danger and costs
- Operations: Provides real-time data visualization and situational awareness
- Performance: Collects, integrates, and analyzes human performance data
Examples of spatial computing devices Microsoft's HoloLens and Apple's Vision Pro headset. Benefits of spatial computing
- Reduces risks and costs
- Provides superior results by enabling users to make faster, better informed decisions
- Enhances field team effectiveness
- Elevates human capabilities
