Current advances allow wearable devices to monitor and track our activities and actions, and anticipate and react in a variety of ways and situations. But that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Why are we seeing such an explosion of wearable technologies now – what’s fueling this wave? How might the gaming industry leverage these new technologies, and what can we expect when these devices become increasingly connected and context-aware? Heading, pitch, and roll data could register a head nod or shake. Tracked movements could be used in conjunction with mobile controllers to navigate game environments more intuitively. These are just a few examples of how wearables could help create more nuanced gaming experiences. In this session, Corey Rosemond, business development director for Plantronics’ Gaming group, will address the rise of wearable technology – including impacts and opportunities for developers in gaming – as the rise of wearables continues and how it can complement Cloud gaming in general.
