Whether you have heard about it or not, the Snapchat Spectacles are one of the most desirable holiday gifts available this season. On November 11th, 2016, Snapchat revealed that their latest product, the Snapchat Spectacles, are being sold limitedly across America. Since then, this craze has taken America by storm. So, what’s the big hype about? The Snapchat Spectacles are a new take on Google Glass – glasses offered by Google that take videos and pictures (in a very unstylish way), which turned out to be an absolute failure. This time, Snapchat made sure that their product was young, playful, stylish and affordable. At $130 US, the Spectacles are sunglasses that take videos/pictures hands free and are sold explicitly through yellow pop-up vending machines that are appearing throughout America (sadly, not in Canada, yet). …show more content…

Virtual worlds such as Second Life and IMVU — which show a 3D environment on a 2D screen rather than immersing the user inside a room or by using an HMD — and the more recent rise of Oculus Rift have all contributed to the rekindled interest in VR. However, major technology and usability advances are still required for a low-cost, broadly used immersive virtual environment. In the meantime, growing popularity of 3D entertainment using 3D glasses — and, increasingly, 3D smart television screens and projections that do not require glasses — may relegate immersive VR to permanent niche status. Currently, augmented reality applications (which superimpose information on the user's view of the real world rather than blocking out the real world) or mixed-reality scenarios (where HMDs and context-aware software are used in a hybrid augmented/virtual environment) are more popular technology approaches to the problem of marrying immersive VR to a consumer

The Oculus Rift is a virtual reality headset that had one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns to date, with its original focus being on increasing the immersive experience and interaction with games. Recently though, the company was purchased by Facebook for two billion dollars and has announced that other than gaming, they plan to expand the Oculus rift into “…communications, media and entertainment, education, and other areas.” (theconversation) Since the technology can be worn over the eyes, it actually feels as if while the headset is equipped that the user is within the world, or area that the Rift portray in the user’s view. This opens up the potential for communication with family members, lovers, and friends over long distances within ...

Ever since the great invention of the iPhone camera, iPhonegraphy (iPhone-photography) is now commonly used to take photographs compared to professional cameras and even a compact digital camera.
She’s running to bathroom. She’s been doing this for the past three weeks. It’s always at the same time. Right after our video production class, right before lunch. I grab our stuff and head to the bathroom. She’s pacing in the bathroom when I get there. I know she won’t be able to control it no matter hard she tries. Jackie finally runs into the stall and I run in to hold her hair for her. I tell her that I’m going to get her a headband. By the time, I get one out of my bag she’s already done and looks like she’s on the verge of tears. She tells me that a little blood came out this time. I ask her if she wants me to get someone, but she says no. She heads to the sinks and rinses her mouth. “I think I’m going to tell my mom,” she says as she’s wiping her mouth with a paper towel. I hug her and we head to lunch.

Can you see yourself without a cell phone today? This world has become so technologically dependent that it is hard for anyone to not use a cell phone, a computer, or some sort of device at least once during the day. Since technology has come so far, better education should be possible. Cell phones are a way of communication and can make people feel safe, so it is hard to believe that most schools ban them. It is time for schools to see that technology is the future and it is growing rapidly, along with educational and safety features.

The first is the pricing of equipment. Virtual reality headsets usually sell from 400 to 600 dollars, plus the console or pc needed to use the VR. Pricing for both the console or pc could cost over a thousand dollars, but vive, which is a company owned by htc, is teaming up with google to make a portable, independent VR headset, that does not require a computer or console to operate. The release date of this revolutionary device is still unknown to the public and will probably stay that way for a while. Until then, those who can’t afford the high priced VR systems like the PlayStation VR, Oculus rift, and the htc vive can get it on their phone. For augmented realty, the Hololens hasn’t released the consumer edition yet. The evelopement edition is $3,000 and the commercial one is $5,000. But, like VR, Augmented Rality games are available for ipone and android. One example would be stack virtual reality, which is a game where the user has to tap the screen in order to stack moving blocks, if they tap their screen at the right time the block will remain the same size. If they don’t the piece of the block that is hanging off the stack of blocks will fall off.. The graphics might not be as good as a console or virtual realty, but there are many different apps and games available for vr on phones. The prices for vr on phones can range from 3 to a hundred dollars. The second
