How AR and VR Will Shape the Future of Work and Play

How we work and play is about to transform. After a prolonged technology "winter"--or what I like to call the'deceptive growth' phase of any exponential technology--the hardware and software that power virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR) applications are accelerating at an extraordinary rate. Unprecedented new applications in almost every industry are exploding onto the scene. Both VR and AR, combined with artificial intelligence, will significantly disrupt the "middleman" and make our lives "auto-magical." The implications will touch every aspect of our lives, from education and real estate to healthcare and manufacturing.
