3D in Review for 9/14/2018 "Why Apple Matters for AR's Survival"
5As much as I hate admit it. Apple is really the only company that has the knowledge, history and of course money to bring an AR product to market that will actually be useful.
Tune in Friday to look at their history of acquisitions, their long list of patents and some inside news that I was given a couple of weeks ago that brings truth to the rumors about a 8K UHD LCD panel that a new factory is being constructed to produce it.
Also the 'VR Tech Closet' looks at part two of six on taking your Zoom H2N Ambisonic audio file and editing it in Adobe Premiere and Facebook's 360 Spatial Workstation for use for YouTube & Facebook (and Unreal or Unity in the next episode).
