Is high definition 3D models and high concurrency with 3D VOIP Spacial audio the furture?

We’ll find out this friday when Avatar is released if it all goes mainstream or not.

Cyclic thinking is boring; its’ all be done before; blah, blah, blah on the Redio and TV too. Change is overdue.

We are doing a project in Unity, and I am really impressed with the platform so far. We have done in days what used to take months, ands the possibility to embed VR worldlets in web pages is an important step toward making things easy for the consumer (and for the enterprise too).

There is at least one metaverse based on Unity http://fusionfall.com/ but for some reasons I have never been able to access it.

Also, there is an impressive metaverse development platform based on Unity http://moondus.com/ by friend Bruno Cerboni of previous Second Life fame.

Digital TV as mandated from the 1980s in the US should be a clear indication that human negotiated media for the masses follow no such methods.

Immerssive 3d media for entertainment has been the mass market for 10 years. Its usage as a “wrapper” media to sell “newer boxes” and “chips” beyond that vertical market is the issue i believe these posts are trying to examine.

I only, since having been involved in this area for 18 years or so, can suggest that “that usage” has not changed in “numbers” or “get it” factor in any major way. For every ” vr movie 2009″ there was a “vr movie 1994″

The VPs of (10 years ago) of the top 500 corporations that this group would like to target, were no less “interested and smiling” toward the 3dvr media as the current VPs are today.

And from what i can see, the same money was spent in total “investigations” then(96-99) as was spent “now” (2006-9)

The major differnce was that -then- the 2d high production value web- had yet to be monetized– and FLASH as a platform- provided that for the commericial communications industry.

Video-via flash btw- – “you tube” etc. has again become the “other media” to spend on, during this bubble lead by many who did not articulate nor create plausable products based on the 3d platforms offered, but then again, much of that had to do with (again) the lack of business plans that partnered as offered by those same platform developers…

All one needs to do is learn about the distribution and marketing of a media changer online like “Flash- via macromedia-1996-2006″

and compare that to 3d immersive media biz/media models from the same period.

and one will see the truth of why this gets boring;)

It’s never to late!

The “one for one” replacement of “top service providers” on a singular list that cycles those top service providers within a 2 year period is not a “virtual worlds media” industry.

I suggest a little websurfing to see how my comments are as current as one can get.- specifically in the Linden’s Biz World.;)

“Games” – chess, checkers, jumble, have always been mainstream pursuits. Engaging;) or not- they are not immmerisive 3d media just as all dogs arent poodles.. etc.

Text, then Audio(radio) then Video(TV) became mainstream medias for humans to act/communicate with. This is the direction for 3d digital media.

Immersive 3D, networked for many, is a growing medium that will -due to its ability- swallow up the previous media. and then well all be reading papers, watching shared movies, while being digital avatars;)

its this which defines the overal vr media, and in that, we have a while to go. And truly havent gone much furher than the efforts of those from a decade ago, although the current actors refuse/or wont believe that it was possible.

i coined this as “media induced psychosis” decades ago. like VR worlds, one day itll be ” the wisdom of the masses”..lol

maybe i should reneame it more specifically, “immersed media induced psychosis” for the SL bloggos…

yes, dusan, you are slightly delusional;) but i commend youre recognition of it.;)

too late though i fear.
