The digital and physical worlds are starting to come together more seamlessly - it's only the tip of the iceberg in terms of what's coming.
From a client perspective, I really think the work Microsoft's doing with Surface, with HoloLens, with Xbox, that stuff's absolutely essential to the company's future. Because innovation in the future will either be from the cloud out to all devices, or from devices as supported by software in the cloud.
The NBA is fairy tale and real life mixed together.
Augmented reality will take some time to get right, but I do think that it's profound.
Sometimes, fact mixed with fiction so thoroughly that, though no lies were told, it was hard to remember what was strictly true.
I just think that VR and AR are going to be a really big deal.
I believe that augmented reality will be the biggest technological revolution that happens in our lifetimes.
Augmented reality will drive all things like chat, social networking, photos, videos, organizing data, modeling, painting, motion capture, and visual programming. Every form of computing will be combined together and unified in a single platform.
Every application designed for 2D interfaces will be obsoleted by AR.
I feel in love with holography, which is that you don't have to wear anything or carry anything. It is augmented reality, if you will.
I believe AR is going to be the primary platform of the future for both work and entertainment.
Blended-reality technology could play in a limited, walled-garden world, but history suggests that it won't really take off until it offers broad freedom of use.
When I saw how real virtual reality can be, and that we can replace human vision with virtual vision, this can be the ultimate platform.
I think the most interesting things happening in VR are going to be somewhere in between what you call a traditional game and what you call a traditional movie.
We imagine that some people will jump into the AR and VR space that are complementary. We look at Google Glass. It's very complementary. It's not competitive. It's a different experience. It's used for different purposes.
No one in Silicon Valley loves virtual reality or believes in its future as much as Clay Bavor.
With Magic Leap, your brain doesn't distinguish what's real and what's Magic Leap. Because as far as your brain's concerned, it is real.
We are entering a world where there won't be one but two realities, just like we have two eyes or hear bass and treble tones, just like we now have stereoscopy and stereophony: there will be two realities: the actual, and the virtual. Thus there is no simulation, but substitution. Reality has become symmetrical. The splitting of reality in two parts is a considerable event which goes far beyond simulation.
I'm excited about Augmented Reality because unlike Virtual Reality, which closes the world out, AR allows individuals to be present in the world but hopefully allows an improvement on what's happening presently.
If you black out the background in AR, you could make an immersive VR experience, and if you make the view translucent so you can see through it, you just have an augmented view of the real world. I think that's the ultimate and best form of display tech we'll have.
Augmented reality is the 'boy who cried wolf' of the post-Internet world - it's long been promised but has rarely been delivered in a satisfying way.
Technologists and futurists call the mashup of digital info and physical space 'blended reality.'
There was a very consistent creation of a virtual reality, and eventually it collided with our old-fashioned, ordinary reality.
