A novel computational model that considers how users have been conditioned to think about race might facilitate training for teachers and students.
Video games that use virtual reality to create immersive experiences have become increasingly popular for entertainment and for research. However, the representation of race in these simulations is often shallow — and fails to go beyond physical appearance attributes like skin color. For a more lived, embodied experience in the virtual world, MIT researchers have developed a new computational model that captures how individuals might have been taught to think about race in their upbringing. The new model of racial and ethnic socialization, presented at the AAAI 2019 Spring Symposium, has the potential to not only enhance video game simulations, but also to facilitate training for teachers and students who might encounter racial issues in the classroom.

'The Cave' Is Proof That Mass Social VR Works. In technical demos, Parallux saw the effect its technology had on viewers.
"People were holding hands, whispering to each other; doing things that you would expect people to do at the cinema or a theater," said the company's COO, Gabe Zetter. "But they were all in a shared virtual environment. " The demonstration appeared simple, though, frankly, it could use better animation. Even so, as a proof of concept The Cave is compelling. L'arbre phylogénétique du vivant. Il est important de prendre garde ou d’avoir en tête que, comme toute représentation imagée, l’arbre du vivant tente de compiler une histoire évolutive des êtres vivants riche et buissonnante.
VR Shows How Corals Recover After Bleaching. A five-panel 3-D mosaic of the same reef over five years shows how corals in Palmyra were affected by the 2015 bleaching event and then recovered.
Credit: 100 Island Challenge Hundreds of videos the researchers generated are available on YouTube for public viewing. "The program gave us the unique opportunity to virtually re-visit each of our dives and to examine the reef with a new focus," said Fox. "When we 'dove' back into the images, we realized that the bleaching was even worse than we remembered when we were actually diving on the reef collecting the data. " Along with documenting the bleaching, the researchers were able to closely monitor coral recovery. In areas where coral did die and was covered with reef-smothering algae, researchers saw that in about a year this algae was replaced by the pink crustose coralline. Traditionally, changes in coral reefs were measured with transect sampling, in which divers record observations along one specific line across the reef.

VR is traditionally a lonely experience. VR Reduced Parkinson's Symptoms Of 10 People. 'The primary advantage is that they can encounter multiple obstacles and terrains while a safe environment is maintained using equipment such as a fall restraint tether,' said K.
Bo Foreman, PhD, associate professor and director of the Motion Capture Core Facility at the University of Utah. 'Participants enjoyed the experience and thought it was fun, not just exercise. They liked training and challenging themselves without the fear of falling.' The virtual reality experience is projected onto semi-circle-shaped wall facing the patient, who is on a very wide treadmill. The patient wears a headset, shoes and clothing with sensors on them, and they are tethered to a pole behind them for control. Some of the tasks seem more straight forward than others - walking straight through a field, for example, rather than jumping up onto the curb of a road.

TrendsWatch 2016 will go up on the web at the end of this week! And (spoiler alert) one of the topics I cover this year is the explosive rise of Augmented and Virtual Reality devices. The technology behind AR/VR is rapidly becoming more sophisticated, while costs plummet. The implications go far beyond games development: AR/VR have tremendous potential as educational tools, having been dubbed “empathy engines” for their ability to foster human connections. Museums are already exploring the potential for these technologies to enhance our practice. Today, a case in point: Peder Nelson, exhibit developer and Geoff Nunn, exhibit developer and adjunct curator for space history tell us about the Museum of Flight’s forays into the virtual realm.
For the past six months or so, the exhibits department at The Museum of Flight has experimented with the use of virtual reality (VR) technology. The response to the test run was overwhelmingly positive. Six Tips for Making Virtual Reality a Reality – American Alliance of Museums.

Réalité virtuelle : une révolution scientifique. Après la sortie de l’Oculus Rift de Facebook, et de la Playstation VR mi-octobre par Sony, il se dit que 2016 serait l’année 1 de la Réalité Virtuelle pour le grand public.
Mais au-delà du jeu vidéo, ça fait bien longtemps, près de 60 ans maintenant que la communauté scientifique se passionne pour tout ce qui permet d’augmenter le réel, voire de plonger dans des univers immersifs qui s’y substituent. Réalité virtuelle, réalité augmentée : quelles sont les révolutions techniques et scientifiques à venir, c’est le problème que nous allons tenter de résoudre dans l’heure qui vient. Bienvenue dans La Méthode scientifique. Casque et réalité virtuelle ; les applications. VR & Médiation Scientifique. Introduction - Virtual Reality. When Facebook bought virtual reality company Oculus in early 2014, virtual reality blew up.
While game and movie studios began reimagining the future, others looked back at the "old days" of VR — a loosely remembered period in the 1990s when gloves and goggles were super cool and everyone was going to get high on 3D graphics. But things were never so simple. We spoke to 18 key VR innovators about their work and dreams.
What follows is over two decades of memories and visions for what the future could be. Some people identify the birth of virtual reality in rudimentary Victorian "stereoscopes," the first 3D picture viewers. In 1965, Ivan Sutherland — already known as the creator of groundbreaking computer interface Sketchpad — conceived of what he termed "The Ultimate Display," or, as he wrote, "a room within which the computer can control the existence of matter. " Les musées en réalité virtuelle bouleverseront-ils l’expérience de l’œuvre d’art?
