La conferencia anual de desarrolladores de Google, I/O, comienza la próxima semana (del miércoles 17 al 19 de mayo) en el Shoreline Amphitheatre en Mountain View, California. Aparte de los talleres y la ayuda técnica para los desarrolladores, la compañía utiliza I/O para anunciar sus próximos proyectos y esfuerzos.
Google Daydream y realidad virtual
El año pasado, Google anunció y luego lanzó Daydream, su equipo para la realidad virtual para apoyar su plataforma VR y estándar. A medida que Google sigue invirtiendo en VR (recientemente adquirió el estudio de videojuegos VR Owlchemy Labs), no será ninguna sorpresa si Google lanza más anuncios y contenido sobre VR.
La plataforma de realidad aumentada de Google Tango forma ahora parte del equipo de VR, por lo que espera que Google tome los siguientes pasos aquí, trabajando VR y realidad aumentada (AR) en una sola visión. Definitivamente sería agradable ver controladores más avanzados y cámaras que podrían ayudar a mezclar estas dos realidades juntas.
A ver que han adelantado durante este año. Igual nos dan una sorpresa y han conseguido integrar Tango con los nuevos smarphones Daydream añadiendo posicionamiento inside-out al igual que los HMD de Microsoft. Pero viendo el silencio que hay respecto a Daydream, las pocas aplicaciones y pocos terminales que lo soportan después de un año tengo que ser escéptico respecto a esta plataforma. Mucho tendría que mejorar en precio y prestaciones y aplicaciones disponibles para que fuera interesante.

Designing screen interfaces for VR
Fri. May 19, 11:30AM - 12:30PM -- Stage 4
Content levels: Advanced, Beginner, Intermediate
When we think of VR, our minds naturally gravitate towards three-dimensional environments and interactions. But, there are times when it's necessary to present content in a two-dimensional way. With VR, we have the opportunity to reevaluate the nature of screens, and how we view and interact with screen-based content. This talk will cover techniques the Daydream team uses to create legible, usable screen interfaces in VR. We will introduce new workflows, new units, and highlight interaction opportunities and pitfalls.Office Hours with the Daydream and Tango Developer teams
