Ours is! It's OK: use makeSEA and MagicLeap for Trade Shows and Exhibits to put your full-scale booth — that you host live and your customers can literally walk through and around — directly in their laps for the cost of shipping a laptop.</p> <p>This is not the trade-show VR you have seen pop up recently: An entirely new class of mixedreality technology lets you present experiences too expensive or too large to produce in the real world at a fraction of the cost, and meet with your customers "holodeck-style" — as if in the same physical space together, from the comfort of their location of choice with no travel or in person meeting. Updating content is as easy as a social media post. Remote demonstration is more relevant than ever — making it feel like the real world is priceless!</p> <p><a href="https://www.makesea.com/trade-shows-exhibits">Learn more here.</a> Or contact us by calling <strong>800-803-1050 </strong> or <a href="https://www.makesea.com/contact-us" target="_blank"><strong>email us</strong></a> for more information or to set up a <strong>FREE demonstration</strong>.</p>Roberta Dobolek2020-06-26T14:56:00ZFree makeSEA Account & Catapult AppRoberta Dobolekhttps://community.makesea.com/blog/-/blogs/free-free-free2020-05-21T17:14:57Z2020-05-21T11:00:00Z<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BMrK1lML2XY?rel=0&controls=0" width="640"></iframe></p> <p>makeSEA user accounts and Catapult for spatial computing have always been free.

The mega-factories we rely on are experiencing shortages of personnel and raw materials for production. With the shortages of basic medical products like PPEs and respirators, it’s evident that manufacturing plays an important role in battling this virus and future pandemics. So where does industrial 3D printing, also know as additive manufacturing (AM), fit into the manufacturing ecosystem? And what benefits can the AM industry provide?</p> <p><span class="ILfuVd NA6bn"><span class="e24Kjd">For those of you unfamiliar with the term, additive manufacturing is defined as the process of joining materials to make objects from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive <b>manufacturing</b> methods. Right now, we are seeing many 3D printing businesses step up to the plate to provide masks and respirators to personnel on the front lines. The additive manufacturing process provides the ability to produce on-demand and the flexibility to rapidly adapt and change—for instance, change a design to meet a current need. This can all be done without retooling a factory, cutting time and costs. </span></span></p> <p><span class="ILfuVd NA6bn"><span class="e24Kjd">With the use of 3D model data, designers can adapt, customize and simplify designs. And with the use of augmented reality/spatial computing, design teams can collaborate on design changes from anywhere—whether they are in the same room or working remotely. Experts are already predicting that the office of the future will include more remote collaboration. </span></span></p> <p><span class="ILfuVd NA6bn"><span class="e24Kjd">Interested in planning for the future? </span></span>makeSEA is an intellectual property capture platform combined with the worlds most accessible AR content publishing and collaboration suite. makeSEA provides a project-based workflow to store evolving content relating to any subject matter, including a living document repository that tracks all contributions and changes over time for attribution.

It seems like a “no-brainer “ that instructors, especially at the high school and advanced educational levels, should embrace digital technologies to facilitate more interaction with and by their students. The new digital learning opportunities available to students—such as hybrid courses, personalized instruction, and new collaboration tools—are driving a new class of education.</p> <p>High School and Collage level youth are voracious consumers of digital content and are expected to understand and be able to create digital media, while demonstrating competencies and communicating ideas through digital storytelling, visualization and content management. In other words, by the time an individual reaches the high school and certainly the collage level, they are expected to be able to use, manipulate and curate all kinds of digital media and assets.</p> <p>The makeSEA suite of tools for education provides a place for students to enhance their learning experience by providing the resources to store assets, track the evolution of designs and projects, collaborate with team members, and showcase individual or team projects. In addition, it can teach and reinforce the lost art of documentation.</p> <p>The question is often posed about the effectiveness of digital learning in the classroom. Here are just a few of the reasons technology is improving education over all:</p> <p><em><strong>Technology has provided expanded access to education.</strong></em> <br /> With access to the internet, digital devices and new technologies, education is accessible to almost everyone, everywhere. Today, opportunities for online formal learning abound and personal enrichment and exploration is provided by everything from blog posts to video-conferencing, from Virtual Reality (VR) to Augmented Reality (AR). </p> <p><strong><em>Technology is making it easier for teachers to create engaging, relevant instructional materials.</em></strong><br /> Instructors now have the opportunity to create all kinds of materials (from instructional videos to learning games) that can be shared online and in many cases enhanced and viewed using AR or VR technology. Content can be updated and refreshed on-the-fly to keep students current and always engaged.</p> <p><strong><em>Technology has expanded opportunities for communication and collaboration.</em></strong><br /> As a simple example, with the use of AR technology based tools, students in a classroom in the US can share and collaborate on a group project with students in another state or another country. Changes to the project can be made, documented and viewed in real time. Students have the ability to work with others no matter their location.</p> <p><strong><em>Technology is changing the role of teacher and student.</em></strong><br /> In a traditional classroom the teacher is the primary source of information. In the new era of learning, teachers can function more as a “guide” that encourages students to gather their own information on a topic and share with students in the classroom and with other individuals and teams no matter where they are located. Technology has encouraged more individual learning and exploration, keeping students more engaged.</p> <p>As traditional education evolves, educators will adopt and adapt to new technologies that can enhance the learning environment. Students will also have to adapt, learning new skills along the way. More sophisticated and complex technologies will require a better way to track projects and store assets, as well as track project contributions and changes.</p> <p>makeSEA can provide a set of tools to track the evolution of designs and projects across teams, classes, curriculums and disciplines including the Arts, Architecture, Health Sciences, Engineering, and Additive Manufacturing. AR is a part of the makeSEA for Education SaaS.

Our SaaS platform also offers a way to get started with Augmented Reality, converting your files automatically for use in the 3D visualization space.</p> <p>Augmented Reality, visual reality, mixed reality, spatial computing, and now XR—whatever term you use to define the new technologies, it’s no secret they are changing the way students learn and interact in the classroom. Nowhere is this as evident as at the advanced technical or college level where disciplines including Architecture, Health Sciences, Engineering, and Additive Manufacturing, are incorporating the new tech into their curriculums. If the curriculum also includes 3D design and printing, students are prepped to face the job market confidently.</p> <p>What I’m pointing out below is an over-simplified list of what today’s students will contend with in the future. If 3D design/printing and Augmented Reality aren’t already a part of a curriculum, they will be soon enough.</p> <p>Let’s start with Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC). In the past an architect or engineer has been mired in paper-based processes to bring the project stakeholders to the right decisions. With the introduction of 3D printing and AR visualization, students are being prepped to present clients with a 3D printed model of the project and then with the use of AR, walk the client through the future space so everyone gets a stake in refining the build.</p> <p>Complex projects, such as a hospital or sports complex, are already benefiting from advanced design and visualization as clients engage with the architects and engineers to discover issues that could effect the future build. Issues such as space planning, placement of infrastructure and even the placement of the proposed build on a site can be addressed with visualization through AR and the use of 3D models. Students can study and analyze at scale, models of their designs in real-world environments. Visualization saves time and costly mistakes. This is the future of architecture and engineering and students familiar with the new technologies upon graduation have a leg up on the competition.</p> <p>Many institutions of higher learning now offer Additive Manufacturing as a discipline. 3D design, 3D printing and AR are integral parts of this curriculum. As an example, 3D design and 3D printing are being used for prototyping of product line design and AR is being used as a tool to visualize those product changes in real time. With the use of AR, team members can collaborate on product design and make changes on-the-fly, regardless of their location.</p> <p>Nowhere has AR and 3D printing had such an impact as it does in the study of health sciences (dental, nursing, pre-med). In the dental sector it is being used everyday to visualize, design and print 3D implants and dentures at a much lower cost than ever before. Large dental practices are employing the technologies of both 3D design and AR to produce bridges, implants, dental plates and corrective devices for patients in office, cutting down on time and costs to service patients.</p> <p>AR is being used in Dr.’s offices, clinics and hospitals to provide explanations of new therapies to patients in real world environments. And Prosthetics are being designed, tested and produced for patients—everything from robotic hands to artificial limbs, ears, and even internal organs—using 3D design techniques and AR for visualization and fit.</p> <p>Today's graduates will be better prepared for tomorrow's workplace if they are familiar with the new technologies already being used in many industries.</p> <p>If you’d like to see how <strong>makeSEA for Education</strong> can enhance your curriculum feel free to reach out to us for a free demo or trial. <strong>Call 800-803-1050</strong> or <a href="https://www.makesea.com/contact-us"><strong>Contact Us</strong></a> today.</p>Roberta Dobolek2019-10-03T21:46:00ZUsing AR for EDURoberta Dobolekhttps://community.makesea.com/blog/-/blogs/ar-for-edu2019-09-25T15:02:21Z2019-09-24T21:27:00Z<div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69);"> </div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69); text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://community.makesea.com/documents/12185/672444/60WLI.jpg/03747562-98a7-1788-e070-e6308e4579f8?t=1569423247136" style="width: 75%; height: 75%;" /></div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69); text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69);"> </div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69);">It’s no secret that keeping the attention of today’s students is harder than ever. From grade school to college level, these students have been raised with exposure to rich technological advancements. Technologies such as smart-boards and e-textbooks, computer and tablet learning have all become part of the normal classroom experience. To keep today’s students engaged they need to be immersed in the experience, excited and challenged. </div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69); min-height: 14px;"> </div> <div style="font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; color: rgb(69, 69, 69);">While the classroom evolved over the last decade with the use of the above mentioned technology devices, Augmented Reality (AR) software and hardware advances were taking place. We’re now looking at a future where AR-enabled lessons can become an integral part of any classroom setting.
