At the #BITKRAFTSummit23, Malte Barth (General Partner, BITKRAFT Ventures), Nanea Reeves (CEO, TRIPP, Inc.), AJ 'Dr Doom' Shewki (CEO, LIV), Robert Günther (Head of Metaverse Content Platform EMEA, Meta), Tommy Palm (CEO, Resolution Games), and Felix Hartmann (Managing Partner, Hartmann Capital) came together to explore the many “R’s” of reality we’re seeing in the industry today.

First - #VR, #AR, #MR… Let’s break it down:

🔍 VR (Virtual Reality): Fully immersive experiences in a digital environment (think Keanu Reeves and the Matrix)
🔍 AR (Augmented Reality): Overlaying digital elements onto the real world (Tony Stark’s trusty virtual assistant Jarvis)
🔍 MR (Mixed Reality): Combining virtual and real-world elements seamlessly (have you tried the Vision Pro yet?)

A few takeaways on the realities of yesterday, today, and tomorrow:

🥽 Yesterday’s Reality: The evolution of VR
VR has been around for awhile, so most people understand the broad parameters of what the technology can do. Over the past several years, we’ve seen many generations of headsets come into market with greater development in display technology, AI, and slowly haptic interfaces. The evolution of both the hardware and the software has paved the way for ever-increasing immersion as a stepping stone for AR.

👥 Today’s Reality: The merging of VR and AR
Today we’re starting to see the connectivity of the virtuality spectrum; the real and the virtual elements are intertwined and the resulting experiences transition seamlessly between these realities. With devices like the Vision Pro and its ability to render digital images seamlessly onto the real world, users experience an even greater telepresence with enhanced audiovisual immersion.

🌐 Tomorrow’s Reality: The future of immersion
Looking ahead, the evolving landscape of various realities will continue to push the boundaries and create new dimensions of interaction. Our panelists envision a future characterized by identity shifting and avatar-based communities, persistent and more robust MR as a continuum of experiences all the time, and an entirely redefined social network in which we engage with other people.

As technologies and content converge and the boundaries of reality blur, it will be interesting to see how communication and decision-making become more intuitive and whether we can unlock new levels of cognitive capability. Link to full video in comments.

"I play this game so much, I dream about it."

This is the kind of reaction that game developers spend their careers, passion and their best ideas chasing - knowing that it may never happen.   

You can't buy it.  You have to *earn* it.

We're just getting started with our ambition to build a global air combat shooter that is your new hobby.   

It's been a challenging and rewarding journey, with a truly amazing, talented and persistent team -  and we're only just getting started.  We're getting ready to grow our team as we grow our game - follow Starform for upcoming role postings if you're in game dev and looking for something where you can make an impact.
