ISE 2017 the World allowed visitors to use tablet PCs to travel around the globe , and dive into 360 photographs of some of the finest examples of Mosques on the face of the earth . Using Canons latest projector and an innovative , ultra-wide , fisheye lens to create a spectacular dome experience – the collaborators hope to commercialise combo .
As AR / VR / MR are currently in vogue , there were Augmented Reality installations at the event in greater numbers than ever before . In terms of headsets , I spotted , Vuzix , Google Glass V . 3 , Epson Moverio BT 350 , Microsoft Hololens , HTC Vive and Oculus Rift . Though possibly the most engaging experiences were evident in the work of EyeVis and their blend of transparent touch , tablets , automation , augmentation and interaction .
More and more in business life , we see that tech companies are shrinking or entirely negating the barrier of geographical location through the development of true collaborative technologies . Multi-touch video walls , that were unimaginable as little as five years ago , now seem to be everywhere . Couple that with the advances of connectivity via cloud services and you suddenly find yourself in 2017 , easily able to lead global teams on complex projects in real time and at any scale .
Integrated Systems Europe 2017 definitely got a thumbs up from the visitors and the participants , and we all look forward to next year immensely .
The last word goes to one version of the future of the customer interface – a vacuum formed , rear projected , miniaturised , virtual shop assistant . You can ’ t make this up – vive la différence ! n
