How Augmented Reality Will Change Education Completely | Florian Radke | TEDxGateway

Florian Radke talks about how Augmented reality is not a toy, it’s a powerful tool that will help solve some of the worlds biggest problems. If we do it right, it can be the next great platform for education, human connection and productivity. Like Iron man, we all will soon be surrounded by data and 3D models that we can interact with, as early as the year 2025.
Florian is currently leading communications at Meta, an augmented reality (AR) company that is one of the companies at the forefront of designing our AR future. Meta’s focus is not on creating experiences that distract or pull us out of the real world, but rather that enhance our natural environments and facilitate greater learning and communication than has been available before.
The possible applications range from more immersive classroom learning to a collaborative creative tool that can be used in real time to bring storytellers together from around the world.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

So very cool. I would love to work in the VR/XR world some day. AR is the future of education and remote work

[@tamaria9353]

This would be great technology to use in the classroom to study places and objects that students can not easily go to or see in person.

[@souravsahoo1582]

absolutely

[@brendanm4179]

Exactly, for history and geography. But wouldnt want to over use it

[@echoesmusic-up6tk]

this talk really helped me to actually understand it more well done :)

[@stefanocasafranca924]

niceee tedtalk...almost 2023 and seeing a lot of advances in the field

[@hadinechemam]

well done 👏

Nicely explaining the video

[@DiabolicMagicSquare]

All I saw was using hand gestures instead of joystick/mouse to rotate objects..how is it any different ?

[@nigelanicette9243]

Vr headsets can change the world.Think about it, as a society,for thousands of years, we've been advancing and evolving to survive. We went from horses to cars.From stairs to elevators. Vr headsets are just the next step to human evolution. He's right,It's not a toy. It's a tool for education. And we will grow and prosper from it as a whole.

AR and VR and the METAVERSE are the future !

[@angel_m4ya]

pov: your here from online school cause your science teacher said so.

[@ytkartik]

at 1:13 he told that you need AR device to visualise the content in 3D, but we can already do that with our computer or mobile - similar to games - all AAA games (PUBGM, COD, GTA etc) have 3D view, then why we need this AR device? Please enlighten me!

[@notrevieataiwan]

Seems like no one's got the answer yet...I'm curious about it as well...like, what makes this technology a "must" to be a part in the classroom settings? Enlighten me please!

[@danielbendler8685]

Yes, if we adopted this technology things change dramatically to worse. First, i was enthusiastic about it, however, now i can not see general applications, only specific ones.

[@minetime6881]

Little do we know this is the future...

this is 6 years ago, that reality is not there yet, is AR not going fast enough ?

[@kwero9924]

i remeber watching this video 5 years ago

By when will full dive be available?

[@0GRANATE0]

Apple is working on it. Apple Glasses will cost 499.-

True Microsoft Hololens costs $5000 but AR can also be experienced through smartphones in your pocket. And believe me there are AR apps which you can use right now!

Search Unity+Vuforia in KZbin you'll get amazing tutorials on how to build an AR app with minimal coding.

technology, like most things, has two sides. The "driver" conceptualized by high noble intents of good, and the end game, which is the dark side of the internets. What technology will bring, and now has, is darkness.

[@MJruling]

The thought is good. New research says it may interfere with visual memory. We should test it rather than make an entire generation a device addict.

[@EJTheGreatest]

hmm

Damn that's a very interesting question you are bringing up...

3D objects are not new. We have always been able to pan, rotate and zoom around these objects inside a webpage. Yet, we hardly use it. We don't need a 3D object to be reconstructed when our eyes see from one direction. It still lacks the physics: you can't touch the object, it can't do the job its meant to do because its virtual. Again, the exploded view of a 3D object is not new. From what I can see, the benefits AR provides: depth information (I don't need or would be willing to pay a dollar for this feature.) Personally, I look forward to having AR goggles for my kitchen: I'd like to watch, control content and get guidance while I learn to cook in the kitchen.

Better than vr which is pretty antisocial lol

[@jawbone9349]

Honestly, i cant find a way to use this in my day to day life, its kinda useless, and it has very limited and specific uses

[@souravsahoo1582]

you dont know anything

[@BB-kw5bz]

I bet you said the same thing when the first smart phone came out. There are people who can think a few steps ahead and understand what technology can do in the future and there are people that only see its limitations...

[@jawbone9349]

@@BB-kw5bz im 17, and i was born in this era, im tech savvy, i knoe how to use my phone to its fullest extent, andnso use my pc, however, what in the world would i use augmented reality glasses for, to watch youtube? I can watch my stuff on a hard screened phone were its better visible. Would i read? Thats also not efficient, what would i do with it, its so useless

[@BB-kw5bz]

​@@jawbone9349 Fair enough, so you haven't experienced any new technology come to life that changed the way we use things like a laptop, smartphones and just like AR will in a few years time. Of course it makes no sense to move current use cases to a new device. That is not what they're built for. The first laptops had no WiFi, and even if, internet was not used by anyone 30 years ago and the top models had spreadsheet capabilities. that was about it. No enduser wanted one or could see why people would need a private computer some day. When the first iPhone came out in 2007 there were no apps and nobody wanted to use them. It takes time and a few market makers. And AR like hardly any other consumer technology now has the potential of disrupting the way we do things. Nobody can tell you what exactly the use cases will be. Just like nobody could tell what we would use phones and laptops for in 2021 when they came out.

The most unenthusiastic audience I've seen in a while.
