Augmented Reality: Amplifying Human Intelligence

Dr. Helen Papagiannis, Ph.D.

MAR 11, 2019 | 9:30AM – 10:30AM

The power of Augmented Reality resides in its capacity to amplify human possibility: creative expression, knowledge, and connection. With AR rapidly advancing as a new medium, we must ask: How can we design experiences to enhance and enrich a user’s life and extend our humanity in unprecedented ways? In this session, Dr. Helen Papagiannis, author of “Augmented Human,” explores what AR does best and highlights ways that AR and emerging technologies can serve to expand human intelligence.
