Hosted by the awesome John Gagan, a long-time member, and volunteer with Boston VR, this dev jam is your chance to come to learn about Blender or sharpen your skills!

While it may be too late to participate now, we may see many of you at the world’s largest XR Hackathon, all taking place on the MIT Campus from January 25th to 29th.

Stay tuned for more about this and keep an eye out for the upcoming link for Demo Day for the public to see what was made at the hack.

From the MIT Press website:

“A comprehensive overview of developments in augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality—and how they could affect every part of our lives.”

Table of Contents:

  1. Why Augmented and Virtual Realities Matter

  2. The Many Shapes and Forms of AR and VR

  3. The Technology behind the Reality

  4. Extended Reality Gets Real

  5. Virtual Technologies Change Everything

  6. Morality, Ethics, Law, and Social Consequences

  7. Embracing an Augmented and Virtual Future

Three questions worth considering while reading this book are:

  1. How did we get here?

  2. In what unconsidered areas will augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality inevitably bring disruption?

  3. How can I use my VR headset to enrich my learning in an area that I haven’t explored before?
