As we count down to the Initial Bonding Curve Offering (IBCO) modelled public token sale on 30 November, we are receiving a lot of interest in the virtual real estate aspect of the OVR augmented reality world.

It’s a recognized phase in the adoption process of technology that all new inventions and discoveries must go through. And that fear of the unknown plays a big part in this phenomenon. For example, when we […]

At OVR, we’ve talked about how we have spent a lot of our tech development anchored to the key principles of Augmented Reality (AR) as a way to enhance existing realities, and not simply creating new ones for alternative realities.

Loneliness is now becoming a trend among young persons, a feeling I thought was only for seniors. For young persons, I would say their addiction to social media has taken the place of socialization- an antidote for loneliness, while for seniors, a common occurrence. However, there isn’t much that can be done to stop their […]

It’s no news that Augmented Reality allows users to contextualize and live their ideas, dreams and experiences as in the real world. It creates the illusion that the real and the virtual coexist in the same space. But how can this help users in their day to day lives? How can AI be used to […]

Augmented reality although a very innovative technology is still at its infancy, i.e. largely under-utilized. With most use cases strictly in gaming and a bit in online retailing, one would agree that the potential of AR technology is such that it is yet to be strongly felt around the world.
