“We tried very hard to employ humor and emphasize possible interventions to mitigate this. We did find that people got worried, but we also noted that the worry seemed to galvanize people to act, which is a good outcome from our perspective.” What better way to make a point than to "show" people the potential outcome in a far more realistic manner than just words or pictures! Will VR bus or other types of tours become a thing? C'mon, how good are those "walkman-style" walking/talking tours anyway? https://lnkd.in/eBi6EJr8 #xr #virtualreality #emergingtechnology

Today we are talking about the 15th SDG “Life on Land”, which aims to protect, restore, and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, manage forests, combat desertification, and halt biodiversity loss. How AR and VR technologies can contribute to the preservation and sustainable management of terrestrial ecosystems? Some examples: - VR Virtual Tours to experience ecosystems that are threatened by deforestation, pollution, or climate change. - AR-Applications to learn about plant species, animal habitats, and conservation issues during hikes or park visits. - Simulation of Reforestation Scenarios through VR - Using VR, scientists can create virtual models of ecosystems, allowing for remote studies and monitoring of biodiversity. - VR can show projections of how climate change could affect specific regions, with visuals showing potential loss of biodiversity, desertification, or forest loss. #sdg #sdg15 #lifeonland #biodiversityprotection #ar #vr #immersivetechnologies #ecosystemprotection

https://lnkd.in/ebPja74C DREAMSCAPING PROCESS Dreamscape Global provides a process for developing your ideas into virtual models and real-world communities and cities. Our “Dreamscaping” workshops focus on developing practical use cases, business models and user interfaces and experiences (UI/UX) for virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) deployed in the enterprise. We bring hands-on experience from our VR projects in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), smart sustainable cities, cultural district revitalization, shopping, local climate projects, and healthy cities since 2016. Our Dreamscaping process integrates 2D and 3D design and storytelling to show people how they can plan their cities and communities. It integrates research, planning, visualization, storytelling, construction, monitoring and reporting. Our current projects include healthy cities with virtual hospitals by Aimedis.com for personalized healthcare and medical training using AI + VR/AR. Demos: see our Blog The challenge will not be easy. In my novel, “Gaiapolis”, I describe the harsh realities facing leaders who try to implement bold climate policies as climate disasters strike repeatedly.

#XR can visualize impossible. That's the true power of mixed reality. It can help overcome our human limitations when it comes to impossible time scales that often bend even the brightests minds. How might we visualize climate changes in a way that helps us understand dynamics at play? How can we inspire people to engage with "impossible" information through XR? What's the best way to do it? #climatechange #impact #mixedreality #systemsthinking I've used Midjourney, Runway and then tracked this text in Adobe After Effects.

Step into the future and explore New York City in 2075 through a new virtual reality experience offering the public a chance to peer into the future 50 years from now. By transforming a traditional tower viewer into a VR portal, we’ve created two possible futures by transforming the Manhattan skyline as seen from Gantry State Park. Imagine a world where our economies, energy, and food systems work for both people and the planet. Experience a future built on climate resilience, justice, and wellbeing, where innovation transforms our lives. Using scientific data from Earth4All, we've developed two possible scenarios of what New York could look like 50 years from now, brought to life by the award-winning speculative design studio Superflux. Join us in reimagining a city that works for everyone. As the Summit of the Future approaches, don’t miss this immersive installation—a collaboration between See Through Stories, Superflux, Earth4All and the United Nations Foundation.
