AIR (Augmented Intelligent Reality): when AI & AR come together ...
“Extended reality is dead. Now it’s time for artificial intelligence.” How many times have we heard this statement in recent months? However, from Onirix, we want to bring a new point of view: the possibility of joining both worlds to create new solutions that help companies and people.
The Convergence of AI and AR
Artificial Intelligence (AI) goes beyond just ChatGPT or generative AI. It involves the emulation of various aspects of human intelligence, encompassing perception, recognition, reaction, planning, and problem-solving. The future interaction between AI and humans will likely be through augmented reality (AR), providing a visual interface for the digital world to communicate with us.
This is where the concept of AIR: Augmented Intelligent Reality comes into play. AIR represents the seamless coexistence of Augmented Reality (AR) & Artificial Intelligence (AI), paving the way for innovative solutions and experiences.
The Role of AR in AI Communication
Take, for example, the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, a groundbreaking device poised to revolutionize the industry. These glasses, while currently focusing on camera and sound functionalities, have a clear roadmap to incorporate augmented reality through screens. They enable users to obtain real-time information about their surroundings, augmenting their reality with AI-generated insights.
As AR technology advances, we are moving towards a future where multimodal AI will provide a comprehensive understanding of the environment. However, tailored AI solutions will be essential for specific business needs, integrating seamlessly with augmented reality experiences.
Current Applications of AI and AR
In recent months, significant advancements have been made in AI, such as Google's Project Astra, Meta's Llama 3, OpenAI's GPT4o, and Apple Intelligence. Similarly, the field of extended reality has seen progress with virtual and mixed reality headsets like Microsoft Hololens, Magic Leap, and Meta Quest.
These devices enable experiences that combine AI and mixed reality, enhancing industries like manufacturing and retail. Companies like Onirix are at the forefront of integrating AI and AR technologies to create impactful use cases for businesses.
Web AR: The Fusion of AI and AR
One notable development is Web AR, which allows users to access augmented reality experiences directly from their web browsers. By leveraging AI and AR, companies can create immersive and interactive solutions for various sectors, from industrial settings to retail environments.
With innovations like Spatial AR, Onirix is pushing the boundaries of augmented reality by incorporating AI capabilities. This technology enables businesses to develop customized AR experiences with space recognition and AI integration.
Looking Ahead
As the realms of AR and AI continue to merge, the possibilities for transformative experiences are endless. Stay tuned for new initiatives from Onirix under the concept of ONIRIX AIR (Augmented Intelligent Reality), a synergy of AR and AI tailored for businesses.
