“Bicycle of the Mind”

Re:“Bicycle of the Mind” by georgewsinger on Saturday August 17, 2019 @07:18AM (#20723400)

The VR computing revolution presents the opportunity for us to get back to the "bicycle of the mind" frame of mind: where computing gives us tools to augment human intellect. For example, there are a set of office applications out there that (i) can make an office worker 10x more productive at his/her job than otherwise and (ii) are only possible to build in VR/AR. The goal for us/people in this ecosystem should be to find them and build them.

Do you know of any good "office" applications in the VR space?

That's very optimistic, but it's hard for me to see at this stage in the game, how AR/VR can make someone 10x more productive, especially when it just appears to be a VR window manager.

AR has its place, but a paperless office doesn't seem like the right fit. The factory floor does though! https://www.howtogeek.com/400963/google-glass-isnt-dead-and-...
