The Infinite Retina

By: Irena Cronin, Robert Scoble

Overview of this book

What is Spatial Computing, and why are companies like Tesla, Apple, and Meta investing billions into it? In The Infinite Retina, Irena Cronin and Robert Scoble explore how spatial computing—where humans and machines interact in a digital–physical space—has progressed beyond theory into real-world applications. This second edition has many substantial updates, including two new chapters on the relevance of Generative AI in Spatial Computing and a new chapter on the impact of Apple Vision Pro. Each existing chapter has been updated to have the most current information and commentary. The book offers a fresh look at seven major industries, including healthcare and retail, featuring updated case studies, expert commentary, and real-world examples. Additionally, it addresses crucial risks and challenges, such as data privacy, automation's impact on employment, and ethical concerns. This edition moves beyond speculation to critically analyze what Spatial Computing means for businesses and individuals today.

A fourth paradigm of the personal computing age is upon us, Spatial Computing, and it is one that truly makes personal computers even more personal.

With the coming of Spatial Computing and its two purest members, Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), fed by artificial intelligence (AI), we believe that businesses and human cooperation need to be aimed at one thing: working together to build complex technologies to keep us around on this planet longer and in a more satisfied and productive state, while paying attention to the effects that these technologies have on ourselves and the planet.
