Immersive Audio Podcast

In this episode of Immersive Audio Podcast, Felix Thompson, with the help of insightful guest speakers, will look at Audio for Augmented Reality, and how it’s changing peoples’ lives today. Augmented reality, or AR for short, is an industry that’s been silently booming over the last couple of years. Unlike virtual reality which totally immerses the user, AR offers a blend of the physical and the virtual worlds. With the huge success of Pokemon Go, which allows people all across the world to see Pokemon floating around in real life via their mobile devices, augmented reality developers want to take the next step in revolutionising how we hear the world too, making augmented reality experiences for tourism, education, music - and even reinventing hearing aids. This episode was produced by Felix Thompson and Oliver Kadel with the help of Abbigayle Bircham and Share O'Hare and included music by Knobs Bergamo, Isaac Joel and Yung Koolade.
