AP Podcast - Episode 93: Kevin Williams talks about immersive attractions, the retail apocalypse and whole bunch of acronyms

Kevin Williams is the Founder of KWP, the Digital Out-of-Home Immersive Entertainment Consultancy, and he knows a thing or two about the immersive experience industry. Kevin walks us through the early days of VR (virtual reality) and shares the progression of technologies such as AR (augmented reality), MR (mixed reality), XR (cross reality) and LARP (Live action role play). We also discuss how the retail apocalypse has opened up some really interesting opportunities in this space.
