RE: The beacons are lit!!! dlux calls for aid!

in #utopian-io6 years ago

This is a very interesting concept and using the collaborative power of the internet could turn this idea into something incredible. VR tech works well, I am a huge fan especially the VR Horror games. However VR has not yet exploded onto the scene the way I had hoped it would I believe in part it is due to the uncomfortable and unsocial nature of VR combined with a lack of advertising it as the new norm. Imagine if you will, a living room with Blue Tooth Surround Sound to socialize or earbuds to be private and instead of a TV at the core of the room, there is VR googles that are truly comfortable to wear and a set for everyone in the room. Instead of a couch, each person is seated on a lazyboy that can turn 360 degrees and recline. People can experiance movies in 360VR without ear buds so they can still interact, games can be played in the same way. Eventually gaming consoles will catch on and the whole dynamic of the living room will move forward into the next step in its evolution. Instead of split screen or having to play online to allow full screen gaming, friends will all be in the same room playing a common game with a full view from their headset. Think back to 1910, years before the invention of the Television, parents sat on chairs and children on the floor to listen to the radio before the invention of the TV in 1927. Blockchain could be leveraged in any number of ways here, recording rank, managing accounts and even running the game (in the future). I will keep an eye on this project, because I think it has huge potential, utilizing the collective knowledge to work on a project always gives an advantage vs. a hand full of people to create something. Good luck and thanks for posting.

Glad to be hearing such positive feedback. Blockchain needs to be show not tell. Until people understand it's power it will just be seen as a speculative investment. Bringing Social VR to this social blockchain goes a long way, and through AR we can bring anything in reality along with it. I'm hoping this is the killer app, especially because everybody is investing in to VR and it has a huge advertising problem which I believe we've solved. I hope you were able to read the whitepaper and ico drafts.

I read the article, the whitepaper I have opened in a tab and will get to it soon. I began following you and will comment again after I have read it through.

So I have now read the Glitch Whitepapers and I like it a lot. Are there many Apps already written to the Glitch infrastructure? When someone modifies and App do they get to digitally sign it so people know who created this version of the app? I would like to test it out for myself and modify an App, then I could write an article about it on my blog linking the App I modified showing people how easy it is.

Glitch has it's own permissions, none of the content there subjects you to steem wallet loses though. once the content is posted on the steem blockchain via IPFS it is digitally signed. There are a few aframe developers that have things on Glitch. Aframe's blog has a nice variety of concepts and librarys the community has developed. I've made some of my posts while livestreaming and I'd love to do that with you as well. You can go from concept to execution in as little as 10 minutes. You can build a new level for a game every week or so and let the world experience it with you. You can do anything.

The living room offers incredible opportunities for mixed reality. The TV has long been the focal point, but we're now seeing devices like the Nintendo Switch mix this up and encourage players to look at each other in games like 1-2-Switch. Soon AR glasses will be commonplace and IoT will enable everything in the home to interact. Our goal is to build a framework allowing anyone to create experiences for these new exciting technologies and be rewarded for their creativity and time. As all tech continues to democratize only the ideas will retain value, and that is what Steem allows us to monetize.

Sounds good to me, not only for my home entertainment but I am invested in IOTA so lets make it happen. lol
