NVIDIA Project Holodeck

October 25, 2017

Project Holodeck is a "photorealistic, collaborative virtual reality environment that incorporates the feeling of real-world presence through sight, sound and haptics" - NVIDIA. I can see this type of technology being useful for engineers working together from different locations, especially the exploding parts feature, but they would probably need to be wearing VR goggles, headphones and haptic suits, which is cool until it becomes work. NVIDIA is a leading manufacturer of GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) used in the gaming industry. A possible benefit is that whatever advances are developed during this project could be adapted for consumer VR.
