2nd November – The Future of Mobile and Augmented Reality
Posted on: October 28, 2009 – Filed under: Sydney
For our November event we are looking into the future!
To set the scene we’ve invited Michael Harries to come and present, here’s an overview of his talk:
The mobile internet is exciting today and continues to rapidly evolve – this talk will touch on some of the forces driving the phenomena today and tomorrow, ranging from the pragmatic – such as access to business applications with the Citrix receiver – and voice as the killer app, through to design, animism, and ultimately a new era of ambient devices.
Michael will be presenting at November Mobile Monday Sydney
Dr Michael Harries is Director of Strategy and Communications at Citrix Systems, CTO Office and Citrix Labs. As part of the Research and Development team, Dr Michael’s remit is to keep Citrix ahead of technological and market innovation. Within the CTO Office, Dr Michael acts as a technology futurist with broad interests across new computing technologies. In Citrix Labs, he steers research and investigation activities toward innovative new technologies and strategic entry to new markets.

The second part of the evening will see some presentations by Augmented Reality companies. We’ll find out what’s happening in this new field and hopefully get a demo or two. We’ll post some more details over the next couple of days…
