We are organizing a series of events in Prez with guest speakers. Experience the next evolution of immersive live events.
The talk is an immersive 3D experience using the Meta Quest with a live Q&A in virtual reality.

Our first Next Speaker is Rick Casteel:

Personal Productivity Using Virtual Reality

How VR can enhance flow and focus

This 3D presentation in VR, is a distillation of the paper published several months ago (Personal Productivity Using Virtual Reality | by Rick Casteel | XR4work | Medium), looking at the factors involved in the use of VR for desktop productivity and how VR enhances flow and focus. We will look at how VR impacts desktop productivity's Hard factors (Quantitative) and Soft factors (Qualitative). Four multi-monitor VR productivity platforms will be examined, compared, and contrasted. We will then discuss what the future may look like and what is needed to have HMDs replace our desktops as a predominant productivity tool for digital work.
