Specificatii
A fascinating exploration of the history, development, and future
of virtual reality, a technology with world-changing potential,
written by award-winning journalist and author David Ewalt,
stemming from his 2015 Forbes cover story about the Oculus Rift and
its creator Palmer Luckey. You've heard about virtual reality, seen
the new gadgets, and read about how VR will be the next big thing.
But you probably haven't yet realized the extent to which this
technology will change the way we live. We used to be bound to a
physical reality, but new immersive computer simulations allow us
to escape our homes and bodies. Suddenly anyone can see what it's
like to stand on the peak of Mount Everest. A person who can't walk
can experience a marathon from the perspective of an Olympic
champion. And why stop there? Become a dragon and fly through the
universe. But it's not only about spectacle. Virtual and augmented
reality will impact nearly every aspect of our lives--commerce,
medicine, politics--the applications are infinite. It may sound
like science fiction, but this vision of the future drives billions
of dollars in business and is a top priority for such companies as
Facebook, Google, and Sony. Yet little is known about the history
of these technologies. In Defying Reality, David M. Ewalt traces
the story from ancient amphitheaters to Cold War military
laboratories, through decades of hype and failure, to a
nineteen-year-old video game aficionado who made the impossible
possible. Ewalt looks at how businesses are already using this tech
to revolutionize the world around us, and what we can expect in the
future. Writing for a mainstream audience as well as for technology
enthusiasts, Ewalt offers a unique perspective on VR. With
firsthand accounts and on-the-ground reporting, Defying Reality
shows how virtual reality will change our work, our play, and the
way we relate to one another.
