Geolocation is a much better way to connect with people in your network than the newsfeed, which goes by at the speed of light. What kind of data? Wikipedia, Google, Yelp, selfies, other forms of social media. Computer vision will recognize objects, and they will be clickable. Facial recognition means I’ll never forget a name. Buildings, streets, and business will all have a geolocated data layer that can be revealed by mobile AR. So, what can we expect from the future of AR in the short, medium and long term?ĪR is going to be a fundamentally location-based experience. The catchphrase of the book is “How the world will be painted with data”. Like my first book, Metaverse, this is also AR-enabled. More than a book about technology, this is about an evolutionary change in humankind. The convergence will lead to head-worn, interoperable AR/VR glasses and, ultimately, to wearable, invisible, computing. We will soon wonder how we put up with its miserable form for so long. But the smartphone is just the beginning. In my new book, Convergence, we tell the story of Augmented Reality, a new technology that’s seeping into every smartphone and every workplace. Our devices will change dramatically and change us in ways no one can fully predict. Latency-free 5G broadband networks, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies will converge in the next five years to change the world as we know it. We are on the cusp of a new generation of mobile computing. Tell us about it and make us fall in love with it! I can’t wait to read it! Your new book Convergence is now out. Who knew I’d do the most consequential thing of my life when I was 27? I’d like to think my best work is still ahead of me, but there is no way to top nurturing that seed and what it has grown into in the last 30 years. My boss, studio Chair Jeff Katzenberg said “Figure out why Bambi eats the other animals,” he said, “and you just might have a picture”. The Lion King starts with the king of the beasts on a cliff overlooking the Serenghetti… ” In the last shot of the movie, Bambi, now grown, replaces his father on the bluff. Bambi begins with the Great Stag on a bluff overlooking the forest where his son is born. When I was a junior executive at Disney I pitched my boss Jeff Katzenberg the idea this way: “ Bambi in Africa”. Hello Charlie and welcome to my blog! Is it true that you invented the Lion King? How have you managed to have the idea for such a masterpiece? This is why I am so excited that I have been able to have a short interview with him, asking him more information about his book and his vision of the XR revolution (even if he hates the term “XR”… :D) Charlie Fink during the presentation of his book at SXSW (Image by Charlie Fink) This gives him a deeper look on the revolution that we are living now, the one that will bring the PCs on our faces and will blend our real senses with the virtual ones. He has worked in the past with big companies like AOL and Disney and has lived in first person a lot of technological revolutions like the advent of personal PCs, mainstream internet and smartphones.
And I’m sure that, exactly as the previous book, the special sauce of Convergence will be the great experience that Charlie has in the field. Convergence features great contributions from prestigious people of the immersive field like Robert Scoble, Kathy Hackl, Tony Parisi, Rob Crasco just to name a few. I’ve not been able to read the book yet (I’m preparing for the VEC!), but I can expect from it the same high quality of its predecessor. Fink wrote and directed the 2009 film The First Days of Spring and the 2013 short Heart of Nowhere.Charlie is also a book author and after the success of his previous book Metaverse, now he’s launching his new book, “Convergence”, that is all about the present and the future of augmented reality.
