[Hybrid] Reality Check: Elevating UX in AR/VR

Augmented and Virtual Reality are not new concepts, but their popularity and utility have skyrocketed over the past couple of years, and the momentum isn't slowing down. We're already witnessing them revolutionize major industries—ranging from manufacturing and education to automotive and gaming. As the technology evolves, the demand for intuitive, engaging, and transformative user experiences is catapulting to new levels.

In this session, join Jake Nachlas, UX Designer at The Home Depot, where we’ll talk about some key questions: What does the current landscape of AR and VR look like? Where is this exciting technology leading us, and what will the future look like? Where do AR and VR make sense for a user’s journey, and where do they not? Most importantly, how can we, as UX Designers, help shape the way users interact with augmented and virtual environments? These questions aren't just about keeping up with tech trends—they're about defining how people will interact with this new form of computers.
