Intel CEO Introduces Vision for Merged Reality at 2016
Intel Developer Forum
The 2016 Intel Developer Forum (IDF)
kicked off today in San Francisco with an
opening keynote by Intel CEOBrianKrzanich.
Krzanich articulated the company’s vision
for the future of technology spanning virtual
reality, autonomous driving, the industrial
Internet, and the important role developers
play in bringing this future to life. On stage,
and in an editorial on Medium, Krzanich
explained his vision for merged
reality - a new way of experiencing
physical and virtual interactions and
environments through a suite of next-
generation sensing and digitizing
technologies.
According to Krzanich, “Merged reality
delivers virtual world experiences
more dynamically and naturally than ever before – and makes
experiences impossible in the real world now possible.”
A replay of today’s keynote will be available here in the Intel
newsroom. Below is a summary of the IDF Day 1 news. Please
check back for 2016 IDF news and updates.
