Mixed Reality | Andrea Benedetti | TEDxBologna


[Music]

I do not know how many of you here today can

wait for a recommendation like

what I’m about to do if there is

someone in the hall

or in parks or areas that do not

they know how to swim do not worry about remains

quietly sitting on your own

armchair and nothing will happen in reality

before explaining why this is

recommendation

let me take a step back and forth

we are in Bologna, a beautiful city

you understand the adore bologna is about

the same distance between the spice and

brescia spice and brescia are mine

two cities the first in Liguria where I have

past the first 20 years

the second the other 20 in the first

city

I learned to appreciate the sea ad

love him and in a sense he can not

do without

think that when I was little and the

fantasy has never failed

he played a game maybe a bit

unimaginable that was to think

to the places where I was or where I was

I would be found filled with water and I would have

thought how it would be thought like

would have been noticed inside not a while

as if you want to go to Rome you found the

colosseum filled with water as huge

pool and could change us inside

in a certain sense, they are exciting

you start becoming a little bit more

great for home they started to

circulate the first computers and if mine

brothers used them to play me in

reality poured all my imagination

on those little keys on the keyboard

to invent games worlds scenarios thing

that did not exist

then I became big again a bit

more and I moved

in lombardy where I turned mine

passion of programming in a

work and this allowed me to

feel privileged

every day I feel privileged

in fact I felt a

privileged even when the

tea organizers di di bologna mi

they said come and tell

something and the interesting thing also a

strange thing is that when they told me

to come here

I do not know for what strange reason I have

thought back to the first game I played

when I was little and so if I like

saw this fabulous this fabulous

place where we would be fast

Imagined full of fish has not only

Imagined full of fish I thought

how it would have been swimming inside

and the interesting thing is that from this

moment

you do not realize why

you are still dry pro from this

moment I’m swimming

within this theater and soon

you will notice with me with a technology

strange if you want it to be similar to that

that I put in mind that we have

placed in front of me and able

to see the same reality that I see

is able in all senses

in this scenario then the word is

even more valid is able to

immerse yourself in the same reality in which

I find myself because at this moment I

I’m noticing and maybe you can manage now

see it to you too

those you see are not cartoons

animated are fish turtles

that I have around here will not do you

anything

the interesting thing that the tool

that I on the head and able to

understand in time rai and the environment

and therefore he understood that there is one

floor that there are some people who

there are walls albeit distant

there is a ceiling

there are objects and then decide in

automatic way to make these move

holograms of their lives within

this scenario

I believe you can see them

turtles to the fish that are me

turning around it I will do some

perhaps foreign movements I did not drink

but I bring you somewhere else

now you are seeing with a view

as a spectator, what I am experiencing

thanks to that camera

I bring you the glasses with me

what’s his name?

this object this device here in

head because I decided to bring me a

gift I turn a little towards the stage and

with these movements that now

you will probably begin to see on the

perfect screen I have decided to

bring you a gift that your Tuscan friends

they sent me

I wanted to surprise you a bit and I asked them

that they would send us a little thing to them

they are quite related in reality there

we are also tied because this

what I bring you on stage hoping that

the stage holds the weight is a statue that

it is universally recognized as

let’s say the meaning of human beauty

what I put on the stage is the

david di michelangelo you think he has

sculpted in three years between 1501 and 1504

Florence in 17 centimeters of marble

white pressing someone of you could

to say well it’s not really the david of

mICHELANGELO

no right now because from florence

they sent it protected from blocks

of plaster

I take off

here is to move the line slowly

head right now to let you see

and appreciate in every single detail

the statue is so beautiful in its beauty

an interesting thing if you notice the neck

of the david you will notice a small scar

that in Florence is difficult to watch

because the statue is not like that statue

it’s so mike biggar here it is now

statue is tall

517 inches in front of me with one

photographic accuracy in which you can

see every single vein of the marble

here’s what I bring you are two examples

if you want it is what they are gods

holograms that we call mix of

reality and I take a step back

another the step back and this

you probably already heard

talk about virtual reality

you’ve probably heard of it

also of augmented reality

this is a new thing, reality

virtual you have it the moment you are

wear a helmet or something that is

completely obscure the view from the

place where you are and magically there

find yourself on top of the himalaya on the

maui beach walking on etna e

etc

but you completely lose the sense

of the environment in which you are the scenario

interesting if you think of the pilots of

line the simulators that make those is

a seated virtual reality scenario

in a cabin they immerse themselves in one

reality that completely carries them

inside an air section that

that they must do

augmented reality is a very thing

the simplest you can take one

cell phone probably already someone of

you do it or use it to go maybe

in the square out here display the

piazza is a mechanism one

tells you that later at the bottom 100

meters there is an excellent restaurant or

a game that probably someone

of your children use the could

to find in the middle of the square a

little animal your child can

capture however what is the difference

that if a excavator passed and did

a 5- meter hole in the square

the pet could not know it

so the mixed would be there in midair

reality instead introduces an argument

totally new because the mix between the

physical reality and virtual reality is

a mix that includes the physical environment

with which you find yourself, you understand that there is one

object and interacts with these with

of holograms if I had a ball

digital and throw it towards the t

it would bounce on you then on

stage

if you take them off and do the same

operation the palin would go

directly on the ground

this is the big difference in which

fields you can use a thing of the

gender

the slide says so many things that I do not

they are interesting because I am interested in giving you

a concept only today the limit that you

you have is one and fantasy

any ideal industry industry can

come to mind today the technology in

able to support them today the only limit

that has remained the fantasy because

with technology we can do

anything that could come to mind

and if you want I played with bringing some

turtles on a stage in Bologna

you will converge with me unimaginable into

I bring them four concrete examples

as of today ol lances is used

the world the first is here are even more

fond of the station

orbiting space

the man in the picture is called scott kelly

he was the captain of the 46th

space mission until March 2016

and the person who received it from the ground

2 or the lances that today are on

orbiting space station

these devices allow the

astronauts dissimulate try and test

train on what are the activities

which they will have to do outside

imagine that my colleague tomorrow

we have to do some maintenance on the

we put ourselves on the hubble space telescope

our device

the hologram that will be between us and

so I’ll see him shared

same thing will allow us to simulate e

to try those activities

that we will then go out to make a note

British company that among others

things are airplane engines up to a few

long ago it had two ways to do

training

the first was to pack one

jet engine ship it in the states

joined 50 engineers around the engine

they did their second training

road pack engineers

take them to london

around the engine and train them

today there is a third way

the engine remains where the engineer is

they remain distributed throughout the territory

American wherever they are and everyone

with his own spears he is able

sharing the same the gramma to do

the exact same operation that

they did before

you will convert with me with savings

costs and times designed only for

absolutely embarrassing transfer

the third senaro concerns Japan a

hospital in Tokyo has done one

experimentation is doing one

experimentation with these devices

that allow the surgeon to not

never divert attention from whom

needs its attention the

patient the doctor no longer moves the

head from who has on the bed and all the

information you may need the

he can get on the viewer and if he wants

have a conference call

since even before we talk about skype

with a colleague who maybe in New York and

he is very good on that pathology

thanks to the high front camera

definition can open one

and in New York the doctor will see what

physically it is present on the bed

this also opens up scenarios

certainly fabulous

I do not know if any of you are going to

change machine, however, could

take a plane go to sweden

because party of a certain brand enters

in a showroom and not find cars

showroom is empty

certainly there, maybe one says maybe

I actually placed the mark in the wrong place

of the out on the various walls maybe it does you

think that you are in the right place

a commercial or whoever it will come from

you will not be there to welcome you in Sweden

offer coffee but maybe I offer you

new lances once you put it

you can interact directly with

device and ask for a certain model

drive and see it in the form 1 to 1 in front

maybe you blue I was not bad attitude

sporty head inside the interior

light skin but dark leather wait

that maybe I like calling my wife

wherever it is

my wife for sure everyone does not

you put home my wife puts it

lolo lance will see in his room in the

our room the same car

this is another update

imagine this same this

same scenario in a mall

where today you maybe go and can

see the latest model of a car

provide that model of that color

of that configuration that was

brought there

imagine beauty instead of trying

a device and ask for some

car model not another no of a

color no with another trim and so

Street

these are some examples

if you want some of the technology though

there is one thing that is important to me and

I want to pass it there

emphasize why you feel

very often not this word artificial

intelligence artificial intelligence

now we hear from every pore

everywhere in every corner

artificial intelligence for us is

this is not something that will eat us

but it is a technology or technology

that can allow us to increase the

knowledge the competence to enrich ourselves

and allow us to do more things e

new things and I will not hide that one

I dream of a wish when I entered

here when I started talking

looking at you I imagined that someone

of you thought as unimaginable

some of these scenarios mine

desire is that today come out of this

theater

knowing and having clear that of

the imaginable there is nothing left

thank you

[Applause]
