Joshua Kvavle

Dr. Joshua Kvavle (PhD EE, BYU 2009) is an engineer working for SPAWAR Systems Center Pacific in San Diego, CA. Josh’s expertise is in fiber optic devices, micro and nano fabrication, nonlinear optics and photonics. He became interested in augmented reality when he learned that the number one category of requests from warfighters to ONR Techsolutions in 2012 was for some type of enhanced visualization. From there, he began working to make what science can do for the warfighter a reality via augmented reality solutions.

Amir Rubin

Amir Rubin

Amir is on a mission to 3D-ify the world. Before graduating from the University of Florida in 2003 with a degree in computer engineering, he co-founded Prioria Robotics with a few of his classmates. Following his robotics venture, he developed a stereo-vision system for weighing cattle based only on imagery and later joined Shadow Health to create a 3D simulation healthcare product. While exploring ancient castles in Scotland, Amir came up with a new idea to use 3D to capture spaces, share them with others and create new experiences. His current company, Paracosm, served as a development partner for Google’s Project Tango. Paracosm is actively developing 3D-mapping technologies to enable immersive AR/VR experiences and provide machines with a human-scale understanding of the world…thus bringing forth the roboapocalypse.

ODG

ODG

Osterhout Design Group (ODG) is a privately held company headquartered in San Francisco. Our story begins in 1999, revolutionizing the high-tech toy industry by leveraging and integrating electronics not typically used in children’s toys – miniature recording chips, tiny radio-frequency receivers, and infrared detectors. Today, we are focused on revolutionizing head worn technology and supplying innovative and sophisticated situational awareness, security and first-responder solutions. Our Smart Glasses are designed to be the hands-free computer of tomorrow: fully-integrated, untethered devices that have the power to redefine what can be done on the go. We see enormous potential for our technology in industrial applications, particularly those industries where workers need hands-free and heads-up communication. Our ultimate vision is to bring our disruptive head-worn technology to the consumer market. http://www.osterhoutgroup.com/...
