DESCRIPTION:Outdoor AR\nWho Wants to Come Out to Play?\n \n \n \n \n \n Wednesday\, June 5\, 2019\n6:00 pm to 8:30 pm\n6:00 pm: Reception and networking\n7:00 pm: Panel discussion (with Q&A) \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Augmented Reality (AR) has been one of the hottest and most-discussed technologies over the last decade. When executed well\, AR adds contextual information and deepens people’s understanding of “reality” by overlaying 3D/2D computer graphics onto videos and display screens. Many experts are predicting an AR boom in the next 5 years over a wide range of applications\, including entertainment\, education\, manufacturing\, healthcare\, retail\, and travel\, among others. \nOf these many potential uses\, outdoor AR is an emerging sector that opens up new possibilities for location-based services. Adding a new digital layer on top of the existing world\, outdoor AR will forever change the way we interact with information and open up new ways to transform our surrounding environment. The only limits are our imagination. \nWhile the potential for outdoor AR is huge\, it requires new infrastructure. Both startups and big corporations are racing to develop new mapping techniques to position graphics in the real world. Some players are betting on generating content through crowdsourcing\, while others still prefer a “walled garden” approach to retain full control over data. \n\nWhich approach is going to be the most competitive in the long term?\nWhat will it take to witness the power of AR at scale?\nWhat precautions need to be taken to address privacy concerns?\n\nJoin us on June 5 to find out. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Moderator\n \n \n \n \n \n Avi Bar-Zeev\, Designer and Architect\, Reality Prime \n \n \n \n \n \n Panelists\n \n \n \n \n \n Matt Miesnieks\, CEO and Co-Founder\, 6D.ai \nAnjney Midha\, Co-Founder and CEO\, Ubiquity6 \nRachel Inman\, Staff UX Designer – Google Maps AR\, Google \nPeter Rojas\, Founding Partner\, Betaworks Ventures \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n View or download flyer for event: \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Download the printable PDF. \n \n \n \n \n \n Cubberley Auditorium\nEducation Building\nStanford University\n485 Lasuen Mall\nStanford\, CA 94305\nDriving directions and parking information URL:https://vlab.org/event/outdoor-ar/ LOCATION:Cubberley Auditorium\, Stanford University\, 485 Lasuen Mall\, Stanford\, CA\, 94305\, United States CATEGORIES:VLAB Panel ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://vlab.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Outdoor-AR-Dragon.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190606T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20190606T203000 DTSTAMP:20250222T054326Z CREATED:20190319T212146Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250222T054326Z UID:1965-1559844000-1559853000@vlab.org SUMMARY:Founders’ Series: The Next Wave of Venture DESCRIPTION:Founders' Series\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The Next Wave of Venture\n \n \n \n \n \n Thursday\, June 6\, 20196:00 pm to 8:30 pm6:00 pm: Reception and networking7:00 pm: Fireside Chat \n \n \n \n \n \n As the investment from major VC funds into Series A rounds and subsequent growth rounds continue to get larger\, we are witnessing the emergence of new funds for smaller\, earlier-stage companies.
