Let's fix things 19 - It's not Google IO

Let's fix things

We have a new introduction! Guus orders a PlayStation VR. The duo discuss VR being used in industries that often appear less tech savvy suck as industrial tiles and banking. The group then breaks down the 'Made by Google' event. The discuss the strategic implications of Google home, it's service aspects, Googles revenue streams and how Google Home would be more powerful and terrifying if it knows all your search history and works across all Google devices. Joe gets angry at the Google pixel color names. Guus then moves to VR, discussing a variety of user cases and design aspects.

The discussion ends on the idea that design language have become more complex, including:

• VR - on screen / in VR, gesture
• AR - real world overlays and gesture, combination of physical device language
• Voice - tone, personality, commands, natural language
• Bot - tone, personality, commands, natural language, visual indications of interaction
• Hardware - materials, textures, finish, color
• Software - visual and interaction on screen language

The conclusion is a number of topics to follow up on in the future for designing against a growing set of design complexities.
