I have most of the data for the Virily Mover list. Calling people on the list influencer confused a lot of people, so instead, I am going to call them Movers.
In the process of building this list, I am looking at two things – bringing other views and bringing lots of comments. Please understand that both measures are estimates and untimely the second wrong has a high error rate (It is a trend over ten posts of 10 other users).
I am aiming to post the Movers list on Saturday.
One of the things that intrigues me a lot, and I know I’ve talked about this many times, is AR. As we consider Augmented Reality there are several changes that are coming. The impact of 5g on AR is going to be huge. First off, you won’t have to have as much local storage on the AR device used for the service. As a long time Intellectual Property person, I can tell you that the reality of IP (and Intellectual Capital or IC) is out of date. The more information that can be stored in a central system, the better the delivery of that information can be. For example, if you are a line printer repair person, there aren’t many line printers left, but honestly, there are fewer people that know how to repair them. A centralized AR repair system allows a smart tech to view how to repair the line printer.
You can do that with the existing LTE world (what is Long term Evolution or 4g+) you just have the issue of lag and waiting. Tomorrow with the broad implementation of 5g, the bandwidth will support a lot more information. That said, there are several companies diving into the AR world now. I have mentioned the wonderful AstroReality company. They have created a market around AR and Space. From an AR-enabled Solar System model, a footprint on the moon and finally the coolest – their new coffee mug. I hope many schools buy the products and have them in classrooms. There is value in seeing information in different ways. (there are several learning styles).
If you are interested in what is happening in Space, I highly recommend AstroReality. They don’t have a moon base, but, it wouldn’t take much to be an AR Moonbase Model!

Was indeed great to know about these devices, thank you so much for sharing these facts!!!
you are most welcome! Thank you for stopping by!
You know I read this but I cannot “get” it, anyway keep posting and maybe one day I will. I pinned this one 🙂
Thanks! It really is a lot of data!
just thing two types of movers on Virily that can be easily shown
1. those that comment (and drive many more comments)
2. those that share (to the universe) and bring lots of readers
AR and VR are really interesting topics. Can’t wait for the release of 5G enabled devices. But how about the price?
Cost of AR/VR or cost of 5g devices?
AR/VR devices run between (us dollars) 199 to 1000 (some more, but they are very specialized)
5g will be a standard cell phone (for cell) figure anywhere from 300 to 1000 or so.
Home 5g is a puck, those may or may not cost.
Thank you for the information Doc. I hope I could save more for those devices or probably upgrade my current device to be 5G enabled. I hope that would be possible.
As far as I know, you might be able to upgrade your current device to 5g enabled, but it will depend.
5g is a different antenna set. Plus, you still need a functional 4g antenna at least for the 4-10 years.
Great lessons I far from understand lol, but interesting.
Thanks, LaJenna, I am putting together a little more background on this, to make it easier to understand!
Not that I understand much but I do see that Amazon solar planetarium kits beneath your post. So I know that your posts offer lessons in technology and such.
🙂 a solar powered planetarium, wow, they pulled Astroreality (they make AR empowered space-related devices).
don’t stop talking about AR, please
I won’t Alex. Thanks for stopping by!
I have been waiting for virtual reality for decades now, and very excited about the possibilities that seem just around the corner
I have been using the Occulus Go headset (I have the Rift that I got at a conference, I do not use it as often).
The go rocks!
it is some sexy tech, no doubt about it
It is. The cool thing now is the integration of the concept of personal cinema – Occulus go and Rift both allow you to play Netflix. But the new Goovis headset lets you play your computer screen into the Google (cinema)
The big screen beta lets you do the same on the Go headsets. It means touch typing returns!
I’ve seen some AR comic books that provide background and specs for things that show up, which is pretty damn innovative if you ask me…
Very interesting information.
Thank you very much for the kind words!
I agree with you that 5G will definitely affect AR a lot, but I can’t imagine how far.
I think the short run, my friend will be AR growing fast. 5g will extend the reach of AR empowered devices.
It will allow a much larger file to be presented.
Think of a car, imagine an AR system that can download the pictures (one at a time) of where the belts connect in the car. You can do it, but it will be one picture at a time.
5g will create a system that allows a picture of everything to be available live.
That is a very interesting picture, even in the short term.
Very interesting information. Although I never understood it, but reading your posts makes it all the more understandable.
First, thank you for the kind words you are very nice to say that!
Second – I try, I don’t always succeed to make these complex issues easier to consume.
I always say that we never know when we need some knowledge
That is a wonderful thing to say! I love that!!!!!
Do not blame me , dear friend… I have no idea what you’re talking
Sounds like I need to explain AR a little if I am going to talk about it! AR or Augmented Reality is basically anything you can interact within the real world, that may not actually be there. It allows adding information, visuals and other things to what we see in the real world!
Thanks for the kind and accurate explanation, my friend
Happy to, your comments make my day!
Thanks for the technology lesson Doc!
You are most welcome Carol.
Hey, dumb question are you using the site around noon – 3 pm est? I haven’t been (as you know I am an early bird). I have done so the past two days and it is really slow during the end of day Europe time.
Yes I am here off and on all day pretty much. It does get slow in the afternoons.
Interesting – I think, based on the fact that I had a late lunch this week I may have found the safari slow issue (I was using my iPad in the cafeteria all four days this week, eating lunch sadly at 2 pm. In the am with safari it wasn’t slow, but in the PM it was so slow.)
Let me know if that matches your experiences!
That’s really interesting I don’t know much about these computer terms but the amount of information is growing at a such excellerated rate with inventions that are numerous its impossible for anyone to keep track of all of it. I think it’s really good but sometimes for a person one needs to stop and take track of it all
I agree. I find myself making my field of expertise narrower with each passing year
