The whitepaper "HMDs & Data Glasses - Applications and Systems" shows usage contexts, products and announcements from this fast-moving market.
In March 2012 the Handelsblatt headline named the year 2012 as "The Year of Data Glasses". In fact, it was remarkable that several large companies - including Google, Olympus and Canon - announced plans for infotainment and augmented reality implementation based on data glasses. Apple also received a patent for video glasses technology. It is interesting to see what follows the big announcements: For example, augmented reality is a highly interesting technology that could benefit from this trend. Some of the solutions available today have reached a level of maturity that allows immediate use in the field. Nevertheless, there are a number of unresolved challenges.
The market for head mounted displays (HMDs) is on the move. Nearly 20 manufacturers want to bring new systems on the market in the foreseeable future, which are likely to be both priced and technically very interesting: prototypes of these HMDs already show the integration of a whole range of sensors such as tracking, cameras and imaging depth cameras.
The whitepaper created by the Virtual Dimension Center (VDC, 2016) Fellbach shows the basic use of HMDs and data glasses. At the same time, the VDC provides an overview of current products and product announcements. Therefore available specifications have been compared.
Augmented Reality; mostly confused with virtual reality is a completely different concept and is extensively implemented in various leading companies' R&D departments to experiment with design and performance characteristics.
Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are "augmented" by computer-generated or extracted real-world sensory input such as sound, video, graphics, haptics or GPS data.[1] It is related to a more general concept called computer-mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a computer. Augmented reality enhances one’s current perception of reality, whereas in contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one.

How the web is becoming programmable #smw paris2013Mehdi Medjaoui
A keynote to understand how the web is becoming programmable through APIs.
Web APIs are a unique opprtunity for companies, governments and developers to either better organize the governance of their IT into a scalable and flexible model, either leverage a complete ecosystem around the organization, exchanging data through the web for trillion of applications on billion devices.
Because each civilization has been described by the way it communicates and make exchanges and trade, API are the beginning of a programmable civilization.
Since the popularity of Apple, many businesses have started to hire mobile app developers who are well versed in iOS, and these are trends of iPhone app development.
When building software, the API first approach is the only way to go. Enterprises that are seeking Software Development must definitely consider leveraging the unlimited potential of building APIs.

Augmented Reality - Everything you need to know by Vaibhav DwivediVaibhav Dwivedi
Hey everyone,
I made this presentation as a part of academics and I presented it to give an introductory knowledge regarding Augmented Reality (AR) and Things which everyone should atleast know about it to be aware of this fascinating technology.
Data is the fuel of the connected world, and aspects like value, trust, transparency and ultimately ownership have been a continuous source for debate. As our technical capabilities and our comfort with and within the connected world evolves, so does the conversation about our habits and practices around customer data. As a product strategy and design company that has been leading the industry for more than four decades, I believe that frog is in a good position to reflect forward.
Observations and insights on #MWC17 trends and technologies from Kinetic, the global leader in contextually connecting and activating audiences on the move.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Until now, the vast majority of the interest
in iBeacon has been for retail and
commercial applications.
21. iBeacon
One reason – every iOS device since
iPhone 4S and iPad 3rd Generation has
the ability to be configured as a iBeacon
transmitter or receiver
Estimated 240 million devices in all
22. But can iBeacon be useful for
other applications, such as in
educational environments?
25. Obstacles with traditional

Editor's Notes
Augmented Reality is the use of GPS and other technologies to enhances the real-world experience. Most of you have experienced the constantly moving superimposed goal line on television football coverage.This is Augmented Reality, and it has been around for awhile already. It is now bursting into our lives.
Apple just launched last Friday their new iBeacon system, which has been installed in all of their stores.
Anywhere you are in one of their stores, your iPhone, or iPad will be able to get all sorts of information.
It uses their latest software and actual iBeacons such as this, designed with the use of Bluetooth, which works better than GPS indoors.
The iBeacons are strategically placed throughout the store, tracking your movements, and offering up specials, providing information on the product you are looking at, or helping expedite checkout.
iBeacon is also being rolled out at Macy's, where it will make it easier to get pricing and information on products.
This will allow a shopper to make a more informed purchasing decision, and also help in the checkout process.

…And generally used quite effectively in a commercial sense.
It can also be used by the automotive industry to bring the particular section of the owners manual to your Smartphone, just by clicking a picture of the area in question.
And through the use of GPS, provide displayed distances to vehicles in front of you.
The Government will provide visitor information through the use of augmented reality delivered to the travelers Smartphone or tablet.
Information will always be at the fingertips of travelers. The ever-present tour guide!
Travel, and understanding one’s whereabouts, right from your hotel window, will be commonplace very soon.
Augmented Reality is even being used to allow you to sample various eyeglass styles, from an image from your webcam from your home!
We now live in a world where information will always be a few swipes away.
Our whereabouts are being monitored more and more in a technologically connected world…Gabriel will now introduce you to the use of Augmented Reality in the medical field, a topic that is very close to my heart. Thank you for your time…Gabriel…
This is an exciting time for humans. Technology is advancing at an astronomical rate and what might seem like fantasy or science fiction today can become reality tomorrow.
Geocaching is all around us…No, really it is. There are hiddenchashes almost everywhere, and that is need to find them, is a working GPS and a free subscription to a geocaching site. If you have a smartphone…they have an app for that. Just pull it up and lots of little dots tell you where to find the caches. Follow the GPS coordinates (Look at that, you’re learning about longitude and latitude) and a little searching will reveal your treasure. Its free, its fun, and is a great way to spend an exciting day OUTSIDE with the family.
Have a hard time getting into an exercise plan? Not a fan of running ‘cause it’s “boring?” Not if you’re being chased down my flesh eating zombies, it isn’t. Zombies run is an ingenious way to motivate even the laziest of runners. (I know, because this little AR gem got me trained enough to successfully “run” (there might have been a lot of walking in there too) several 5k runs. This exercise app has a fully voice acted storyline that revolves around you, Runner #5, and the Zombies that are chasing you down. The running happens in the real world, the story happens through your earbuds, smartpnone, and imagination. It’s scary---er…fun!
There are so many educational and useful ways to use AR. We really do live in an exciting time and I for one can’t wait to see what’s coming tomorrow!
