A talk from the Design Track at AWE USA 2017 - the largest conference for AR+VR in Santa Clara, California May 31- June 2, 2017. Joel Pennington (Autodesk): Virtual Reality in Design: Now and the Future VR is disrupting many design professions from architecture to engineering, construction to manufacturing and of course, in Media & Entertainment. Tomorrow's designers, makers, and artists will simply rely on VR as core technology to get their job done. This is because immersive experiences help us perceive the design as though we’re physically present: allowing creators to better predict and make more informed decisions about our designs and artistry. As a world leader in 3D design software and deep knowledge of Media & Entertainment, Autodesk is in a unique position to leverage new creative immersive technology like VR, to build tools that will usher in the Future of Making Things. http://AugmentedWorldExpo.com
