Irena Cronin is the CEO of Infinite Retina, a Pasadena, California-based firm that helps organizations enter and flourish in Spatial Computing. She has counseled numerous decision-makers on business strategies relating to Spatial Computing, which encompasses AR/VR, AI, Facial Recognition, Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, and other related technologies.
Robert Scoble is a bestselling author and the Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) at Infinite Retina. Throughout his career, he has interviewed thousands of entrepreneurs and has been present at the birth of several innovative technological businesses, including Siri and Tesla.
What exactly is Spatial Computing, and why are companies like Tesla, Apple, and Facebook investing substantially in it?
Authors Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble attempt to answer that question in The Infinite Retina by assisting you in understanding where Spatial Computing - an augmented reality where humans and machines can interact in a physical space - came from, where it's going, and why it's so fundamentally different from previous computers or mobile phones.
They provide seven future visions as well as the industry sectors where Spatial Computing will have the biggest impact: transportation, technology, media, and telecommunications, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, finance, and education.
The book also includes perspectives on the past, present, and future from industry veterans and pioneers like as Sebastian Thrun, Ken Bretschneider, and Hugo Swart. They delve into their predictions for what will happen in Spatial Computing in the immediate and medium term, as well as what it could mean for humanity in the long run.
The Infinite Retina then leaves it up to you to decide whether Spatial Computing is genuinely the future of technology or if it is merely a fun but fleeting phase.
