  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

New project...

How does a headset do this exactly?

More than only the headset, it is the content being shown.

Not sure if I read this or if I saw it in a Ted Schilowitz TED talk, but the message was that when you experience something in augmented/virtual reality the experience is so vivid that you retain much, much more. The statement was that if you watch a movie on a movie screen, in a couple of days you will remember you watched a movie and probably some high points of the movie. But if you watch the same movie virtually, you remember almost everything about the movie.

Imagine a child with lexDysia. Put them in a virtual learning experience and they retain everything. Emotional vs rote learning. Maybe even abstract vs concrete learning and thinking.

Brain changing (literally, physical brain changes) experience.

ADDITIONAL: Wouldn't it be cool if one day we could identify children genetically prone to become serial killers, and through an intervention such as augmented reality we were able to change their brain at a younger age when the brain has more plasticity?

It does seem likely that the wearable VR space is where this will be. Eyeglasses are the obvious wearable for many reasons, and VR is the hot topic of the year...decade. Magic Leap has attracted over a billion dollars for something that most people have still not seen. The content side remains a very tough nut to crack -- hopefully this will be about content capture.

Please be right, please be right, ...

Seriously though, it sounds like something more universal than just my personal utopia, but to quote Liz Lemon "I want go there"

A comms service that:

+) Can stream data globally using a high-speed satellite uplink to route globally (eg Cell data, Video data, Voice data)

+) Saves time in avoiding physically transfer (data could be routed to a private cloud that would also act as a local backup - saving you space)

+) Electronics might be required to help coordinate this. Said local device might replace existing fondleslabs if it happen to perform enough of their functions ...

It has to do with space. And travel. And time. And electronics.

Get ready to place your deposit. It will be guaranteed by me.

I'm in. Just like ten years ago... hands shaking on the credit card, no idea what I'm getting into, but I'm all in.

Where do I send my deposit?
 
VR aside, folk with macular degeneration would benefit from a high quality headset display to watch TV. A live camera would help those with other vision problems.

A worldwide network of live streaming 360x360 cameras, located in interesting places, from the Amazon river to the Amazon factory, would be educational and fun.

Then there is the red "hydrogen" a miniaturised hydrogen powered fuel cell?

It is very engaging to chew the fat because Jim could pull off some of the ideas in this thread.

We know Jim has a strong interest in that...

That would fit "put down a deposit on something you know nothing about."... 'cause that is something I know nothing about. '-)
 
Samir! That's because you have been feeling lucky!!!
 
I didn't win a weapon. But I will be getting a dragon loaner and that is just beyond belief. I mean who does that?

Well only one company in the history of my 36 years. Regarding customer service I will tell you I have never experienced this level of customer service. Bomb squad rep not available... No problem here are two reps to cover in an absence. I do have to say I feel hella lucky. I was away from shooting full time for a long time. I decided to come back around the time the fs700 was released. Before that I had purchased a xf305 and was not satisfied. Sent it back in the return window. Put in a preorder for a fs700. Thank God that had a long window of preorders and mine didnt ship. I cancelled and just jumped all in on RED immediately after. I simply can't use another system for shooting anything extremely important to ME now. The workflow. The updates. The people. The quality. Even with the scarlet-mx the only thing I was lacking was the high frame rates at 4K and higher. But you know what it will be a workhorse until I am ready to hang em up.

P.s. For those that own other cameras... I'm not knocking them. You gotta use the one you own. I simply fell in love with this system and workflow. I would have a hard time using anything else now.

And back to the topic. JIM hit us with a nugget.

I have been getting a lot of emails and messages about my posting on "other places" about a new project I am working on.

To clarify... Jarred is completely in charge of RED and will be going forward. He is doing such a great job that it has allowed me to work on the future.

There is a new project that I am so excited about that I can hardly contain myself. Jarred is obviously involved... my best friend and partner in crime. :-)
This new project is the biggest one I have ever worked on. I have worked on a few...

It's not space drives? I'm so all over that.
 
Please, not a global hyperloop

Oh, time travel and electronics too... Guess what.....

Yes, I've had time traveling electronics in my drawing board for years... Now I'm curiouse.

If you can get a signal between two points without traveling it you speed up processing.. But if you can get a chain of processing to report the result to the next segment (Just wait Jim, I have to get rid of everybody else.. "Sleep", "SLEEP!!" There you go, we might be able to have a private conversation now) before the result is finished, you can greatly speed up processing. A concept called parallel time pipeline.. But you can go one step further and know the end result of all computations without having to run the program, just out of the future time and.. . "Wake", "WAKE!!".. So yes, the weather is nice hear at the moment. :)

Fortunately that is not that 1930's+ one about high speed transport under the atlantic, but much similar prolems.

Earth quakes warp or break tubes producing crahes. How to get out in case of fire or crash. If you have to walk the tunnel in case of emergency or the cabin decompresses, people pass out from lack of oxygen. But I agree nice to look into... The system I was designing years ago was an open air and simple low powered levitation system. Just thought up a great modification to it.

But the one where they design capsules that are propelled into space by surface plasma produced from firing a laser at it from group and satellites, so you could travel from Sydney to London in 20 minutes is my favourites.
