Artists and coders swapped notes with the pioneers that brought us to a place where the average person on the street no ..read more

At #AWE2021 we stop and smell the virtual roses, and it doesn’t feel weird. Over the years I’ve demoed a lot of technologies aiming to make experiences more immersive by involving more of our senses such as sound, touch, and smell. But so far, most of the products adding scent to VR have felt gimmicky, and often looked funny, if not downright scary. This is why I was really happy that when I visited the OVR Technology Booth at AWE, donning the modified headset and diving straight into the demo took less than a minute. The head-mounted display (one of Pico Interactive’s Neo fami ..read more

By: Adam Case, Technical Director at technologywithin Over the past 18 months, Covid-19 has placed new pressures on businesses’ demands from their office, prompting tech to rise to the challenge. In the UK in particular, CBRE estimates that ongoing office demand will be 9% lower than it otherwise would have been, creating a more saturated market in which commercial real estate assets must work harder to remain profitable investments.
