Perhaps the biggest immediate change VR will bring is in the way people prepare for their jobs. Decades ago, pilots and astronauts trained using simulators, but, in the near future, all industries will have access to virtual training devices. When miners enter a tricky sha, they will have already been there – quite possibly that very same sha's virtual twin! Pro athletes will never face an in-game situation they hadn't already simulated. Even sexual harassment training will likely soon be delivered in VR. VR also will make life easier for people who think visually rather than analyti- cally. The financial services industry has already pioneered ways to allow custom- ers to "experience" their stock portfolios, investment growth, and retirement savings by walking through it. Imagine entering a city whose skyline represents the total value of different investments. Imagine that they're different colors based on how quickly they've grown over a certain period of time. Visual thinkers will be able to make better, more informed decisions about their money. One huge way AR will help make the world a better place is by creating accom- modations for those who are deaf and hard of hearing. Microso Holo- Lens soware develop- ers are already working on ways to translate spoken language into vi- sual signs so deaf people can "hear" a speaker in real time. AR will also revolu- tionize the way we drive cars. Imagine looking forward toward the road ahead and seeing arrows extending gracefully down the route you've mapped. Picture safety alerts "existing" in a way that you don't need to rely solely on orange cones and traffic-message trailer signs, whereby the warning turns an entire section of the road orange – or pulsing with light. AR will help the elderly, too. Delivered via Google Glass devices that look very much like normal eyewear (and, in fact, can be prescription glasses), AR will help older users navigate tricky shopping trips or errands with greater ease by labeling "to do" items by priority and suggesting easier pedestrian, walker, or wheelchair routes. Throughout history, at times of signifi- cant technological change, inventive people have risen up and moved the world forward. When the printing press debuted, when steam power was harnessed, when the first lightbulb flickered on, or when the first email was sent – creative, visionary people caught on to the implications of those changes and applied them in new ways. The big question is, how will you contrib- ute? What role will you play? Paula S. Wallace is the president and founder of the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD).
