In this paper we review the limitations of existing theories in explaining cybersickness and propose a practical alternative approach. We start by providing a clear operational definition of provocative motion stimulation during active HMD VR. In this situation, whenever the user makes a head movement, his/her virtual head will tend to trail its true position and orientation due to the display lag (or motion to photon latency). Importantly, these differences in virtual and physical head pose (DVP) will vary over time.

  • M&A @ Facebook: Strategy, Themes and Drivers
    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in Finance from NOVA – School of Business and Economics M&A @ FACEBOOK: STRATEGY, THEMES AND DRIVERS TOMÁS BRANCO GONÇALVES STUDENT NUMBER 3200 A Project carried out on the Masters in Finance Program, under the supervision of: Professor Pedro Carvalho January 2018 Abstract Most deals are motivated by the recognition of a strategic threat or opportunity in the firm’s competitive arena. These deals seek to improve the firm’s competitive position or even obtain resources and new capabilities that are vital to future prosperity, and improve the firm’s agility. The purpose of this work project is to make an analysis on Facebook’s acquisitions’ strategy going through the key acquisitions in the company’s history. More than understanding the economics of its most relevant acquisitions, the main research is aimed at understanding the strategic view and key drivers behind them, and trying to set a pattern through hypotheses testing, always bearing in mind the following question: Why does Facebook acquire emerging companies instead of replicating their key success factors? Keywords Facebook; Acquisitions; Strategy; M&A Drivers “The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook 2 Literature Review M&A activity has had peaks throughout the course of history and different key industry-related drivers triggered that same activity (Sudarsanam, 2003).

  • Using Virtual Reality to Engage and Instruct: a Novel Tool for Outreach and Extension Age Group: All Ages! Dr. Geoffrey Attardo
    Using Virtual Reality to Engage and Instruct: A novel tool for Outreach and Extension Age Group: All Ages! Dr. Geoffrey Attardo Email: [email protected] Assistant Professor Room 37 Briggs Hall Department of Entomology and Nematology University of California, Davis Davis, California 95616 Recent developments in computer and display technologies are providing novel ways to interact with information. One of these innovations is the development of Virtual Reality (VR) hardware. Innovations in hardware and software have made this technology broadly accessible with options ranging from cell phone based VR kits made of cardboard to dedicated headsets driven by computers using powerful graphical hardware. VR based educational experiences provide opportunities to present content in a form where they are experienced in 3 dimensions and are interactive. This is accomplished by placing users in virtual spaces with content of interest and allows for natural interactions where users can physically move within the space and use their hands to directly manipulate/experience content. VR also reduces the impact of external sensory distractions by completely immersing the user in the experience. These interactions are particularly compelling when content that is only observable through a microscope (or not at all) can be made large allowing the user to experience these things at scale. This has great potential for entomological education and outreach as students can experience animated models of insects and arthropods at impossible scales. VR has great potential as a new way to present entomological content including aspects of morphology, physiology, behavior and other aspects of insect biology. This demonstration allows users of all ages to view static and animated 3D models of insects and arthropods in virtual reality.

  • Exploration Into Advancing Technology on UX of Social Media Apps by Cameron Allsteadt — 121
    Exploration into Advancing Technology on UX of Social Media Apps by Cameron Allsteadt — 121 An Exploration into the Effect of Advancing Technology on UX of Social Media Applications Cameron Allsteadt Strategic Communications Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract While the development of technology and its impact on the social media space may seem unclear, one idea is widely agreed upon: The ways individuals use and interact with social media applications will change dramatically as technologies infiltrate the space. This study explored how evolving technologies will impact the user experience (UX) of social media applications. Three interviews were conducted with futurists and members of Elon communications faculty, as well as a thorough case study of Facebook’s 2017 F8 conference. Findings suggest that evolving technology will rapidly transform the components of the UX framework and enhance consumer convenience, but may create challenges with corporate trust. I. Introduction Since the inception of the smartphone in the mid-1990s, the world of digital media has exploded in growth and continues to evolve at a frantic rate. The advancements in consumer technology have been principal driving forces behind the diversifying social media landscape. However, the rise of technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence have prompted essential questions surrounding the effect of technological advancement on user experience and human culture as a whole. When Facebook launched and quickly gained popularity in 2004, the social networking website altered the media landscape. Facebook set the bar for similar social media applications to provide new ways for users to engage with and connect to one another.

Pavelka, jr.1, B. Michalík 2 1 Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Civil Engineering, dept. of Geomatics, Thakurova 7, Prague 6,16629 [email protected] 2 G4D s.r.o., Prague, Czech Republic, Hauptova 594 156 00 Praha 5-Zbraslav, Czech Republic, [email protected] KEY WORDS: Virtual reality, photogrammetry, laser scanning, BIM, documentation ABSTRACT: Virtual Reality (VR) is a highly topical subject in many branches of science and industry. Thanks to the rapid development and advancement of computer technology in recent years, it can now be used to a large extent, with more detail to show and is now more affordable than before. The use of virtual reality is currently devoted to many disciplines and it can be expected that its popularity will grow progressively over the next few years. The Laboratory of Photogrammetry at the Czech Technical University in Prague is also interested in VR and focuses mainly on documentation and visualization of historical buildings and objects. Our opinion is that in the field of virtual reality there is great potential and extensive possibilities. 3D models of historical objects, primarily created by photogrammetric IBRM technology (image based modelling and rendering) or by laser scanning, gain a completely different perspective in VR. In general, most of the newly designed buildings are now being implemented into BIM.

My use of transcode, a term introduced by the semiotician A.J. Greimas and carried into the digital realm by Lev Manovich, refers to how cultural elements such as assumptions, biases, priorities emerge within programming code and software. It demonstrates how cultural norms persist across different mediums and posits that, in many ways, the capacity to be flexible defines cultural ideologies. At the software level, programming languages work like performative speech: grammar which produces effects. When cast as speech, coming from a body (or bodies) instead of hardware, information structures can be perceived as acting within regimes of corporeality; when cast as software, information structures demonstrate and advertise the capabilities of hardware. Although often aligned with veracity and stability in its proximity to (computer) science, software is not culturally neutral.
