Cook followed the classic line “One More Thing” by releasing Apple (AAPL)’s new hardware product “Vision Pro”. It’s worth noting that, unlike the industry consensus as an MR headset, Apple defines Vision Pro as the company’s first “wearable space computer,” which leads to the sci-fi concept of “space computing.”
What is spatial computing?
The concept of “spatial computing” originated from a master’s thesis written by Simon Greenwold, a graduate student at MIT’s Media Lab. In the article, Simon made the following definition of spatial computing: ” Spatial computing is a form of human-computer interaction, the machine can process and manipulate the real objects and space-related information.
In the following ten years, spatial computing has been used as a technical term in some technical literature. In 2023, Apple will bring spatial computing into the public eye, and Apple Vision Pro will officially bring the public into the era of spatial computing.
“Space computing” essence is the depth of the fusion of virtual and reality, in XR, 3D, computer graphics, machine vision, Internet of things, sensing, body feeling, and AIGC fusion technology under the blessing, users can use MR head terminal and new space operating system vision OS, immersive interact with digital content and space environment, content becomes multidimensional, experience like reality with offline the world entity interaction.
The era of spatial computing has arrived
Spatial computing is a technology that allows computers to understand the physical world, and it can build on it to seamlessly integrate the real world and the digital world. Space computing can seamlessly integrate the real world and the digital world. Based on this, space computing will bring a new human-computer interaction mode, that is, human-computer interaction in real 3D space, which can realize a new interaction of the close combination of real space and virtual space.
Now, with the release of Vision Pro marking Apple’s step into the era of “spatial computing”, the “spatial computing revolution” triggered by Vision Pro has a direct and profound impact on the technology industry. However, Apple’s unilateral efforts are not enough to make the Vision Pro a “spatial computing” device suitable for everyone. Apple also wants industry app developers to join in to ensure a great experience for every user.
WiMi Hologram Cloud provides important technical support
Data shows, WiMi Hologram Cloud (NASDAQ: WIMI) is based on computer vision and holographic AR technology as the core of technology companies, not only for naked eye 3D, social scene, digital economy, virtual people direction of the discussion and research, also since the universe consumer virtual interactive product IP matrix, can realize high quality, high-efficiency scale of the ground. At present, the company’s research and development team has further explored the industrial chain of space computing and promoted the principle of maximizing their expertise in the principle of accelerating the application of space computing.
Compared with traditional personal computing and mobile computing, spatial computing technology can build a digital twin world according to the real physical world, and connect the real physical world with the digital virtual world to achieve wider applications and innovation. From the beginning of its establishment, WiMi Hologram Cloud has started to lay out the related technical fields of spatial computing. It has accumulated several spatial computing algorithm technologies including light field display, edge computing, and AI visual algorithm, realized the application of a variety of virtual spatial computing scenarios, and become an enterprise with rich technical reserves in the industry.
In the current hot concept of “spatial computing”, some technology reserves or concept products may be on the market in the future. When the era of spatial computing comes, WiMi Hologram Cloud technology can be widely applied to thousands of industries. In the future, WiMi Hologram Cloud will take spatial computing as the strategic main body, attract more partners to build an ecosystem, and use spatial computing technology; build AI large model and precision spatial algorithm, with AI large model, hardware equipment, and spatial algorithm as the core, and build continuously improving business capabilities, to promote the development of the whole spatial computing industry and upstream and downstream industry applications.
To sum up
“Standing at the crossroads of science and technology and humanity.”This sentence comes from Steve Jobs, meaning that through excellent design, let cold technology and warm humanity meet at the crossroads, and then achieve harmony and unity. From a certain point of view, this sentence also applies to the spatial calculation of Vision Pro standing on the virtual and real integration points. To sum up, after a brief introduction to the concept and characteristics of spatial computing, all cutting-edge technology enterprises will lead to the same destination. They are highly integrating different technologies, providing more valuable products to the market, and reshaping the interactive experience of people, people and space, and people and the world.
