Facebook +Shaka + rusnivek + VR = ?

Sometimes I get to do some cool things.


My friends at Facebook wanted to showcase their virtual reality (VR) stuff with me.

Virtual reality goggles? Yep. The possibilities on Facebook Messenger/chat/meetings are endless.

Software has some inherent challenges esp with the shortfall of hardware proliferation and consistency. Bandwidth issues and requirements are tough enough to manage for reasonable VR interaction and usage.

But overall, some neeto VR stuff.

See, I told you VR is closer than you think.

Increase JIC / JIS Communications?

Provide a more accurate briefing w/ tacticians during operational briefings?

Increase understanding with Liaison Officer efforts amongst partners?

Or maybe it’s a space thing or maybe it’s straight up F2F communications is the way Emergency Management needs to continue to build relationships.

Let’s find out and see if this works.

Do these goggles make me look fat?

Me? I already asked the gal if they come ANVIS ready so I can mount on my helmet. She looked at me like I was a weirdo.
