原英文标题: 《Concept Nyx and Explorations for the Future of Connection-Reimagining the future of connection with Concept Nyx and an ecosystem of intelligent peripherals and solutions.》
How will we connect with colleagues in five to ten years’ time? Will we all be interacting with holograms? Fully immersed in virtual worlds? Or will the reality be much closer to how most of us work from our laptops today?
五到十年后,我们将如何与同事建立联系?我们都会与全息影像交互吗?完全沉浸在虚拟世界中?还是现实会更接近我们今天大多数人在笔记本电脑上的工作方式?
Virtual worlds and immersive experiences could offer exciting new ways to connect with others – and our content. And with people more dispersed and working patterns more personalized than before, how we collaborate and get things done have never been more important.
虚拟世界和沉浸式体验可以提供令人兴奋的新方式来与他人和我们的内容建立联系。随着人们更加分散,工作模式比以往更加个性化,我们如何协作和完成工作从未如此重要。
It’s my team’s role to dig into future trends and technologies, experiment with solutions and reimagine experiences. Though immersive environments will play a role in the future of work, face-to-face meetings, instant messages, collaboration tools, and video calls aren’t going anywhere. That’s why we’re focusing on the user experience and honing in on everyday micro moments that could be disruptive as we potentially bounce between physical, digital and virtual worlds in the future.
我的团队的职责是挖掘未来趋势和技术,试验解决方案并重新构想体验。尽管沉浸式环境将在未来的工作中发挥作用,但面对面的会议、即时消息、协作工具和视频通话不会消失。这就是为什么我们专注于用户体验,并磨练日常的微时刻,这些时刻可能会在未来的物理、数字和虚拟世界之间来回切换,从而产生颠覆性。
We’re asking questions like: How will people interact at the intersections of these worlds? What tools will people need to move between these locations seamlessly? What if people don’t want to wear a headset and dive into a virtual world for eight hours each day – would they be excluded from future projects or collaboration opportunities?
我们问这样的问题:人们将如何在这些世界的交叉点上互动?人们需要哪些工具才能在这些位置之间无缝移动?如果人们不想戴着耳机,每天潜入虚拟世界八小时,他们会被排除在未来的项目或合作机会之外吗?
Intelligent, Familiar Tools for Future Interactions
用于未来交互的智能、熟悉的工具
Using Concept Nyx’s ability to deliver compute all around, powered at the edge, we have been exploring how to pair familiar devices and peripherals with Artificial Intelligence (AI) to work together as an ecosystem to deliver easily accessible and immersive experiences beyond gaming.
利用 Concept Nyx 提供全方位计算的能力,我们一直在探索如何将熟悉的设备和外围设备与人工智能 (AI) 配对,作为一个生态系统协同工作,以提供游戏之外的易于访问和身临其境的体验。
Our labs are packed with curated immersive demonstrations and concepts to help us test and explore how Dell could help people move between various spaces and tasks intuitively in the future. From fully immersive Virtual Reality (VR) builds to Mixed Reality (XR) experiences featuring displays and other tools that remove the need for a VR headset, these environments have helped us evolve concepts like the Concept Nyx Companion. As a lightweight tablet-style device that could be viewed and accessed in VR and XR environments, the concept could be a consistent tool throughout all these spaces and could ensure users’ content is in one place as they move between spaces and tasks. No more taking photos of whiteboards or copying notes to be uploaded to a different space – users could just simply screenshot their project space and/or easily copy content for sharing across screens.
我们的实验室包含精心策划的沉浸式演示和概念,以帮助我们测试和探索戴尔将来如何帮助人们直观地在各种空间和任务之间移动。从完全身临其境的虚拟现实 (VR) 构建到具有显示器和其他工具的混合现实 (XR) 体验,无需 VR 头戴式设备,这些环境帮助我们发展了 Concept Nyx Companion 等概念。作为一种可以在VR和XR环境中查看和访问的轻量级平板电脑式设备,该概念可以成为所有这些空间的一致工具,并且可以确保用户的内容在空间和任务之间移动时集中在一个地方。不再需要拍摄白板照片或复制笔记以上传到其他空间 - 用户只需截图他们的项目空间和/或轻松复制内容即可跨屏幕共享。
Together with the Concept Nyx Stylus, users could input notes by voice or via pen, and then drag and drop them into digital and virtual collaboration spaces, and even use the voice activation for AI image creation – perfect for non-aspiring artists! All these tools could also seamlessly be used alongside the Concept Nyx Spatial Input in a future desktop environment with a keyboard and mouse, and possibly 3D displays too. We’ve been looking at creative ways to connect these traditional tools for a clutter-free space, and we’ve also been thinking about intuitive gestures for interacting with content – for example, using the tip of the Stylus for writing and the top of the Stylus for interacting with onscreen content or using the Spatial Input as a dial for a 360 view or for zooming in on details.
与Concept Nyx Stylus一起,用户可以通过语音或笔输入笔记,然后将其拖放到数字和虚拟协作空间中,甚至可以使用语音激活进行AI图像创建 - 非常适合没有的艺术家!所有这些工具还可以在未来的桌面环境中与Concept Nyx Spatial Input无缝使用,包括键盘和鼠标,也可能是3D显示器。我们一直在寻找创造性的方式来连接这些传统工具,以获得整洁的空间,我们也一直在考虑与内容交互的直观手势 - 例如,使用手写笔的尖端进行书写,使用手写笔的顶部与屏幕上的内容进行交互,或使用空间输入作为360度视图的拨盘或放大细节。
We’ve also been thinking through how people might show up in future digital and virtual spaces. We’ve all been on video calls where we need to step away for a moment to answer the door or tend to a pet or child off camera. Instead of leaving a blank screen, empty seat, or static 2015 headshot, imagine with a wave of your hand, you could stay present as an intelligent avatar while you step away or stay off camera completely. To explore this, we’ve been experimenting with gestures and movement tracking and building on our imaging technology and video conferencing expertise to create the Concept Nyx Spatial camera, which when paired with AI software, could learn a user’s expressions and mannerisms to deliver a more authentic representation of them for future interactions.
我们也一直在思考人们如何出现在未来的数字和虚拟空间中。我们都在进行过视频通话,我们需要离开片刻来接听门或照顾镜头外的宠物或孩子。与其留下空白屏幕、空座位或静态的 2015 年头像,不如想象一下,当你离开或完全离开镜头时,你可以作为一个智能头像留在现场。为了探索这一点,我们一直在尝试手势和运动跟踪,并利用我们的成像技术和视频会议专业知识来创建Concept Nyx Spatial camera,当与AI软件配对时,可以学习用户的表情和举止,为未来的交互提供更真实的表示。
Advancing the Concept Nyx Ecosystem
推进Concept Nyx生态系统
From infrastructure to devices, Dell is at the center of present and future workplaces and is focused on developing the tools that will be needed to navigate these spaces. Right now, this means bringing tools to market like a new generation of UltraSharp conferencing monitors and intelligent webcams with motion activated controls and presence detection, and building on technologies like storage, 5G, multicloud and edge that provide the advanced connectivity and infrastructure to allow organizations to shape how they work. In the future, productivity tools will be connected and intelligent enough to seamlessly move from experience to experience and task to task, helping to break down barriers and redefine how colleagues connect with one another.
从基础架构到设备,戴尔处于当前和未来工作场所的中心,专注于开发导航这些空间所需的工具。现在,这意味着将新一代UltraSharp会议监视器和具有运动激活控制和存在检测功能的智能网络摄像头等工具推向市场,并基于存储,5G,多云和边缘等技术进行构建,这些技术提供先进的连接和基础设施,使组织能够塑造他们的工作方式。未来,生产力工具将足够互联和智能,可以无缝地从一个体验到另一个体验,从一个任务移动到另一个任务,帮助打破障碍,重新定义同事之间的联系方式。
