With the swearing in of the United States 45th President Donald S Trump. He also brings a ton of baggage, controversy and most recently a new budget that will cut many of the research programs that have become vital to reducing our green house gases, alternative energy sources, and most important -- the US's ability to compete with the rest of the world in scientific research. This is not set in stone, so read his budget proposal and then contact your congressman to show your concern.
However not everything is a downer, since we have the company Lyrobotix on to talk about their new Inside/Out tracking system called Nolo which was just introduced at CES this year. We also recap several of the CES 2017 product announcements, Mike's own impression of both the HTC/Vive and the Oculus Rift Touch controllers, and his first test of using Autodesk Stingray to walk around in the proposed design of their new bathroom in Portland Oregon. Plus a sneak at the latest production prototype of the uPLAy Stealth. The only inside/out positional tracking capable (Structure sensor) for the iPhone 7 Plus, as well as the lightest and largest lenses of any mobile VR Viewer, as well as one other feature that no other viewer can claim. Full immersion in water.
Oh and Mike also wants to rant a little about Amazon, UPS, FEDEX, USPS, and Portland's lack unpreparedness to handle extreme weather.
