Yes, That's Really Happening At Augmented World Expo

It's 2015 B*tches, and Augmented World Expo is coming at you hard with future-facing tech that you have to experience to believe. If you haven't had the chance to enter the world of Virtual Reality or Augmented Reality, now is the time. Warning: what is posted below is not a gimmick, these demos exist and will be available for you to judge for yourself June 8-10th at the Santa Clara Convention Center.

1. The Sims Game You Always Wanted

AltspaceVR is bringing you a true-to-form holographic experience, where you can interact, play games and even attend a meeting....all in virtual reality. So technically, you can truly live the dream of attending the universally-hated 8am meeting without putting on pants.

2. Suck on THIS MSPaint

Let's assume that everyone remembers the artistic masterpieces you created in Microsoft Paint. Well take all of your MS Paint hopes and dreams and multiply them by THE FUTURE and you have Tilt Brush. Don't take my word for it, Google recently paid a nice dowry and a couple goats to get in on the fun. What now Picasso?

Yes, Winter Is Coming.

3. I Can See Clearly Now....

No seriously, I can see. Vivid Vision is bringing the Doctor's office to you with their vision correcting software for amblyopia and strabismus. Vivid brings real- world medical applications to VR and gives the user a glimpse at the possibilities for other uses in the medical field.

All good investors know medical is a rapidly advancing field, and becoming increasingly reliant on new technology. So watch out for Vivid and other demos of its kind.

4. I Believe I Can Fly....

MindRide / Via mindride.co

I believe I can touch the sky, THINK ABOUT IT EVERY NIGHT AND DAY, SPREAD MY WINGS AND FLY AWAY. Woah, sorry about that. Got carried away, by the wind. Because, I am flying. OK, you get the idea. In this demo by Yehuda Dumyes the user is immersed into flight, and it's f*ucking sick. So if you are at AWE you will probably be trying this, and we are all collectively jealous.
