Today’s KGI report is just the latest piece of evidence that Apple has serious plans to somehow work with 3D space. Acquisitions, supply chain reports, patents and even comments by Tim Cook all add up to a definite interest in something in the 3D space. The question is: what? There’s a lot of confusion surrounding terminology, so we thought it would be a good idea to start by distinguishing between the various terms being thrown around in this space – Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR) – before discussing Apple’s interest in 3D …...

To be successful, it’s nothing but the experience which helps a man more than anything else. Before being an expert in something, everyone makes a ton of mistakes. In fact, mistakes are the predecessor to success. Many people have an idea about this. When it comes to getting experience, time and patience are the two pillars. However, in the present time, smartphones are becoming the supreme gadgets or better if I say the third pillar for the experience....

Conan Unconquered challenges players to survive waves of enemies, but a lack of story and a sense of repetition take its toll as you crush your foes. In Conan Unconquered, developer Petroglyph Games has created a unique blend of real-time strategy and wave-based tower defense. The Conan Unconquered trailer suggests a bold sense of scale, with vast armies clashing as hero units like Conan himself tear through waves of enemies. In practice, the game fails to deliver the same sense of gravitas - but it’s still an entertaining title....

We take photos to capture moments. A great photo can fill in the blanks of our memory, instantly recalling forgotten details and conversations otherwise lost to time.

After the recent upheaval to find a director to replace Colin Trevorrow on Star Wars Episiode IX, the announcement that J.J. Abrams would return to complete the current trilogy of the Skywalker Saga restored balance to the Force. Abrams, of course, helmed Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which grossed $2-billion worldwide and reinvigorated the Star Wars film franchise. Abrams closing out the trilogy he began, while seen by many as a “safe” choice, is like poetry, it rhymes, as George Lucas might say....

Crackdown 3 is finally here, but it wasn’t worth the wait.

Because of his diverse filmography, he has a devoted fan base and is a regular presence in memes....

While I’m generally more of a hard-SF fan, I’m not above a little lighthearted fun where sci-fi is concerned – so I can enjoy a good Star Trek episode as much as the next person. And there are a couple of Star Trek toys I think most of us would like to see: replicators and holodecks. But while VR might be the first stepping stone toward holodecks, I think it’s augmented reality rather than virtual reality that will be where the action – and the money – is …...
