2. Overview
Spatial Computing does everything virtual-reality and
augmented-reality apps do: digitize objects that connect
via the cloud; allow sensors and motors to react to one
another; and digitally represent the real world. Then it
combines these capabilities with high-fidelity spatial
mapping to enable a computer “coordinator” to track and
control the movements and interactions of objects as a
person navigates through the digital or physical world.
3. Introduction
The word spatial computing was defined by MIT media lab
alumni Simon Greenwald in his very futuristic thesis in
2003.
However we are only recently able to make his thesis and
vision possible, due to this technologies : Artificial
intelligence, Internet of things, augmented reality and
camera sensor & computer vision that track environment.
4. Definition
Spatial computing refers to the process of using digital
technology to make computers interact seamlessly in a
three-dimensional world using augmented reality (AR),
virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR).
Spatial computing uses physical space to send input
and receive output from a computer.
5. Traditional computing V/S Spatial computing
Traditional computing works with data and logic.
There is no scope for 3D location in traditional

Traditional computing works with data and logic. There
is no scope for 3D location in traditional computing
But spatial computing uses 3D location to Identify the
digital object which is being executed by the computer
processor.
6. Example
An autonomous
vehicle utilizes GPS,
LiDAR, camera
sensors and other
technologies to get
it’s precise location
and measure it’s
proximity to objects
in the environment
7. Technologies Used In Spatial Computing
GPS
Real-time location tracking with GPS satellites
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging branch of
computer science concerned with building smart machines
capable of performing tasks that typically require human
intelligence.
8. Technologies Used In Spatial Computing
Internet Of Things
Real-time location tracking with GPS satellites
LiDeR (Light Detection And Ranging)
The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the network of physical
objects—“things”—that are embedded with sensors, software, and
other technologies for the purpose of connecting and exchanging data
with other devices and systems over the internet.
9. Technologies Used In Spatial Computing
Augmented Reality
Augmented reality (AR) is an enhanced versionof the real physical world
that is achieved through the use of digital visual elements, sound, or other
sensorystimuli delivered via technology.
Motion Sensing Technology
Motion Sensing is the process of detecting a change in the position of an
object relative to its surroundingsor a change in the surroundingsrelative to
an object. It can be achieved by either mechanical or electronic methods.[
10. Devices Used For Spatial Computing
VR Headset
- VR headsets are devices that allow users to
experience being part of a virtual realm.
- They were used by gamers to interact with video
game objects and characters in the past.
- VR headsets in the market are Oculus Rift, HTC Vive,
and Samsung Gear VR.
11. Devices Used For Spatial Computing
Hybrid Gear
- Hybrid gear uses the technology of VR, AR, and MR
at the same time. This application allows the user to
have an immersive experience since they can fully
integrate their sences.
- They were used by gamers to interact with video
game objects and characters in the past.
- VR headsets in the market are Oculus Rift, HTC Vive,
and Samsung Gear VR.
12. Devices Used For Spatial Computing
AR Glasses
- Augmented Reality Glasses are wearable AR
devices that are worn like regular glasses and
merge virtual information with physical information
in a user's view field.
- AR glasses in the market are Google, Kopin,
Toshiba, Vuzix, Epson, EverySite and much more
13. Benefits Of Spatial Computing
Interactive Staff Training
- Realistic three-dimensional (3D) visualization
provided by spatial computing makes employee
training more interactive and engaging. It also
allowsworkers to test a new feature, product, or
service without having to wait for the
development completion.
- That gives companies an advantage, as their
employees wouldbe well-versed about the
product even before it hits the market.
14. Benefits Of Spatial Computing
Lower product development costs
- Since employees can interact with a new product
or service through spatial computing, they can
become familiar with it in advance.
- Companies can, therefore, save on costs, as they
don’t have to rush to develop a final product
merely for staff training.
15. Benefits Of Spatial Computing
More accessible real estate tours
- AR built into spatial computing makes virtual 3D
tours doable for any property. Whether it is up for
sale, under construction, or still being designed,
this type of real estate tours provide prospective
clients a detailed view regardless of their
location.
- Needless to say, this capability is also relevant
for interior designers, engineers, and
constructioncontractors.
16. Benefits Of Spatial Computing
Help Retail Shops Cope
- Some governments enforced reduced hours and
limited occupancy, while others totally closed
down nonessential shops due to COVID-19.
- But spatial computing could turn things around by
opening the retail shops’ virtual doors to
customers. The stores’ intricate designand
branding will not go to waste, as they can still be
showcased in the virtual world.
17. Mass Customization
- AR built into spatial computing makes virtual 3D
tours doable for any property. Whether it is up for
sale, under construction, or still being designed,
this type of real estate tours provide prospective
clients a detailed view regardless of their
location.
- Needless to say, this capability is also relevant
for interior designers, engineers, and
construction contractors.
Benefits Of Spatial Computing
18. Drawbacks Of Spatial Computing
Devices Costs Are High
- The devices which are used in spatial
computing are too much costly to have.
- Spatial computing can provide extraordinary
features but the devices and technology it
uses is costly.
19. Drawbacks Of Spatial Computing
Side Effects On Eyes
- Headsets strain Users eyes in order to focus
on a pixelated screen that uses a single
refractive optic element.
- This can lead to visually induced motion
sickness (dizziness, nausea), collision with
nearby objects
20. Drawbacks Of Spatial Computing
Hearing Problems
- It's not just the eyes that might be harmed.
"Listening to sound at high volumes can
cause irreparable damage to your hearing,"
states Oculus Rift.
21. Conclusion
Technology will continue to evolve, and further
improvements to spatial computing will significantly impact
our lives. For now, however, adoption is still scarce, as
some find it hard to embrace the concept of spatial
computing.
