Description
<p>Urho Konttori, co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer of Varjo, the mixed reality equipment maker, interviewed by futurist Trond Arne Undheim. </p> <p>In this conversation, they talk about The Future of Industrial-grade Mixed Reality (MR). The advent of enterprise/industrial-grade AR/VR/XR/MR/hybrid reality and its impact on RR. Which companies are using it already? Current professional user types. Emerging use cases. Why is Varjo so focused on human-eye resolution devices and hi-res MR? We discuss adoption timelines and formfactors as well as remaining technical/market challenges. We look into the Future of mixed reality (5-10 years ahead).</p> <p> The takeaway is that industrial mixed reality has now come of age. It is only a question of few years, until large swaths of industry and a plethora of professionals will depend on it to do their job. The pandemic could not have come at a bigger inflection point for the industry. </p> <p>After listening to this episode, check out Varjo as well as Urho Konttori's online profile:</p> <ul><li>Varjo <a href='https://varjo.com/'>https://varjo.com/</a></li> <li>Urho Konttori (@konttori) <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/in/urho-konttori-aa16835/'>https://www.linkedin.com/in/urho-konttori-aa16835/</a> </li> </ul> <p>The show is hosted by <a href='https://www.podbean.com/'>Podbean</a> and can be found at <a href='https://www.futurized.co/'>Futurized.co</a>.
