Prototyping the Future of AR in VR

The future of AR is not on a phone screen with touch input – it’s an immersive headset experience with truly spatial input (tracked controllers/eye) and intuitive UI (hands/voice).

In order to design their AR product with the future in mind, Lee Vermeulen and Alientrap have been designing with VR passthrough, allowing them to harness current VR technology (including spatial input) while blending it with reality to allow for prototyping AR interactions.

In this very special presentation, Lee will go over the prototypes developed – and what they learned for developing for the future of AR interaction and interfaces.
