Overview of this book

What is Spatial Computing and why is everyone from Tesla, Apple, and Meta investing heavily in it? Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble answer that question to help you understand where Spatial Computing - an augmented reality where humans and machines can interact in a physical space - came from, where it's going, and why it's so fundamentally different from the computers or mobile phones that came before. They present seven visions of the future and the industry verticals in which Spatial Computing has the most influence - Transportation; Technology, Media, and Telecommunications; Manufacturing; Retail; Healthcare; Finance; and Education. The book also shares insights from leading experts, industry veterans and innovators, including Sebastian Thrun, Ken Bretschneider, and Hugo Swart. They dive into what they think will happen in the medium term and what it could mean for humanity in the long term. This new second edition has many substantial updates, including two new chapters on the relevance of Generative AI to Spatial Computing and a new chapter on the impact of the Apple Vision Pro. Each existing chapter has been updated to have the most current information and commentary.

Spatial Computing is transforming not only the healthcare system in labs and hospitals, but is also paving the way for a new era of personalized medicine. This technology can help individuals stay healthier and avoid the healthcare system for longer periods, and once they do enter it, it enhances their care experience. Through AR and VR headsets, patients can now receive treatments and monitoring that were unimaginable just a few years ago, offering entirely new ways of delivering care. This brings us to the end of our journey through healthcare and the changes that are expected to come. In the next chapter, we’ll take a look into a very different world―banking and trading...
