Augmented reality could open up huge potential for education outside of the classroom and enable students to learn and interact with whatever is in their immediate physical environment at any particular time. It could also transform publishing and the way we interact with books and images by enabling us to transform them into interactive multimedia. Via Nik Peachey, Karen Brooks, Jim Lerman

En 2016, la réalité virtuelle a pris une certaine ampleur, de par les investissements apportés depuis son apparition, ayant permis une multiplication des applications disponibles, ce qui en a fait un marché aujourd’hui plein de promesses. Cependant, les experts pensent que la réalité virtuelle pourrait apporter des modifications relatives au fonctionnement du cerveau. La réalité virtuelle deviendra-t-elle à terme un problème de santé publique ? Cette technologie apporte pour l’instant un énorme soutien dans le cadre d’interventions médicales. Par exemple, la réalité virtuelle a permis en janvier 2016 de ne pas endommager la vision d’un patient atteint d’un cancer du cerveau, opéré par l’équipe de neurochirurgie du CHU d’Angers, en lui projetant des images qu’il devait lui-même décrire pendant l’intervention. … Via JP Fourcade

"The ‘Pokémon Go’ app is notable for its popularity across generations. It appeals to those who collected the plastic Pokémon monsters in the brand’s earlier incarnations, taking them back to a fondly remembered childhood pastime. It could even remind them of previous GPS location-based tagging games they may have played, such as ‘Foursquare’ (whose creator, Dennis Crowley, has said he is not at all bitter about the success of ‘Pokémon Go’). Such nostalgic media practices are nothing new, as numerous scholars have noted, but what makes this one particularly exciting for its adult fans is the transformation of their childhood monsters into virtual characters that live in their smartphone. The app is also drawing in a new Pokémon audience, one that knows little about the original television animation, video games or toys, launched initially in 1995." Via Manuel Pinto

Teleoperated endolumenal bot can navigate inside the body, image and treat conditions without making incisions.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just approved the first medical robot from Auris Surgical, a stealthy startup led by the co-founder of industry leader Intuitive Surgical, makers of the widely-used da Vinci robot.
The teleoperated ARES robot (the acronym stands for Auris Robotic Endoscopy System), was cleared by the FDA at the end of May, and could now be used for diagnosing and treating patients.
Auris, which describes itself only as a “technology company based in Silicon Valley,” was previously thought to be working on a robotic microsurgical system designed to remove cataracts, and the company has in fact filed several patent applications along those lines.
However, an investigation by IEEE Spectrum suggests that the company has greater ambitions, including, according to current and former employees, “building the next generation of surgical robots… capable of expanding the applicability of robotics to a broad spectrum of medical procedures.”
A close reading of recent patent applications filed by Auris scientists shows that the company is focusing on so-called endolumenal (or endoluminal) surgery. This involves surgeons introducing flexible robots via the body’s natural openings (the mouth in particular), to address conditions of the throat, lungs and gastrointestinal system. IEEE Spectrum can reveal that Auris has already carried out at least one successful human trial of such a robot, outside the United States.
Because endolumenal surgery does not involve large incisions or (usually) general anesthesia, it benefits fragile patients who cannot withstand the trauma of normal surgery. The Society for American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons estimates that effective endolumenal therapies for obesity and reflux diseases alone could help more than 1 million patients a year in the United States.
