This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay sheds light on the future of the video game industry and explicates how emerging technologies will revolutionize the video game industry. Moreover, why Esports have become popular is delineated in this essay. Furthermore, how to earn substantial money online so that you can afford to procure your own modern video games is expounded upon in this essay. The future of the video industry will not only be characterized by dynamism as it continues to metaphorically evolve, but will also be eminently auspicious for video game publishers, video game developers, and customers. The future of the video game industry will be more grandiose than ever envisioned, especially as emerging technologies further revolutionize the behemoth video game industry. In other words, the future of the video game industry will not be solely limited to shovelware mobile games pervading the video game industry. "The global gaming market was valued at $151,550,000,000 in 2019 and is expected to reach a value of $256,970,000,000 by 2025, registering a compound annual growth rate of 9.17% over the forecast period of 2020-2025. Game developers across emerging economies are continually striving to enhance gamer's experience, launching, and rewriting codes for diverse console/platforms, such as PlayStation, Xbox, and Windows PC, which are incorporated into one product provided to the gamers through the cloud platform. The emergence of cloud gaming" ("Gaming Market - Growth," n.d.) has helped to substantially drive video game industry growth. In the coming years, cloud gaming, mobile gaming, PC gaming, and even console gaming will become all the more prevalent. "Recent advances in advanced cloud technology have turned the idea of cloud gaming into reality. In cloud gaming, the server, where all the games are stored, does all the computation work, which includes game scene rendering, game logic processing video encoding, and video streaming" ("Gaming Market - Growth," n.d.). The rising popularity of Esports, gaming streams, and gameplay videos have also contributed to the growth of the behemoth video game industry. It stands to preponderantly reason that the future of the video game industry will not only allow the video game industry to reach an unprecedented pinnacle of success, but will also attract more competitors to enter the sizable video game industry. In the coming years, similarly to video streaming subscription services, such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, customers will have more video game streaming subscription services available to them with a broader selection of titles to choose from playing. In other words, for a monthly subscription fee of $5-$10 per month, customers will be able to have the option to stream a myriad of video games on their consoles or their PCs. In the coming years, video game streaming subscription services will not be limited to "Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Now, Geoforce Now" ("The Impact Of," 2019), and Google Stadia. "This new sector is also seen as a serious competitor for the traditional game market" ("The Impact Of," 2019). The traditional game market is no longer the utmost lucrative segment of the sizable video game industry. The future of the video game industry will offer far more to customers than merely just traditional console games. The future of the video game industry will also offer more to gamers than "virtual reality and augmented reality" (Koss, 2020) video game experiences. In 2019, the video game industry generated over $6,300,000,000 in revenue (Koss, 2020) from "augmented reality and virtual reality" (Koss, 2020) video games. Much to the relief of gamers, "companies are busy making virtual reality experiences more consumer-friendly, and it is only a matter of time before both the weight and price of virtual reality headsets drop" (Koss, 2020). Augmented reality video games on the other hand do not require a bulky headset to play and allow gamers to "interact with reality" (Koss, 2020).

Book excerpt: A look at the revolution in game live streaming and esports broadcasting Every day thousands of people broadcast their gaming live to audiences over the internet using popular sites such as Twitch, which reaches more than one hundred million viewers a month. In these new platforms for interactive entertainment, big esports events featuring digital game competitors live stream globally, and audiences can interact with broadcasters—and each other—through chat in real time. What are the ramifications of this exploding online industry? Taking readers inside home studios and backstage at large esports events, Watch Me Play investigates the rise of game live streaming and how it is poised to alter how we understand media and audiences. Through extensive interviews and immersion in this gaming scene, T. L. Taylor delves into the inner workings of the live streaming platform Twitch.

At a time when gaming is being reinvented through social media, the potential of an ever-growing audience is transforming user-generated content and alternative distribution methods. These changes will challenge the meaning of ownership and intellectual property and open the way to new forms of creativity.

Book excerpt: A leading doctor unveils the groundbreaking potential of virtual medicine. Brennan Spiegel has spent years studying the medical power of the mind, and in VRx he reveals a revolutionary new kind of care: virtual medicine. It offers the possibility of treating illnesses without solely relying on intrusive surgeries or addictive opioids. Virtual medicine works by convincing your body that it's somewhere, or something, it isn't. It's affordable, widely available, and has already proved effective against everything from burn injuries to stroke to PTSD. Spiegel shows how a simple VR headset lets a patient with schizophrenia confront the demon in his head, how dementia patients regain function in a life-size virtual town, and how vivid simulations of patients' experiences are making doctors more empathic. VRx is a revelatory account of the connection between our bodies and ourselves. In an age of overmedication and depersonalized care, it offers no less than a new way to heal.

Book excerpt: Media technological advances have altered the way we consume and engage with information in today's fast changing digital environment. Each new innovation—from the printing press to the OTT—has revolutionized the media landscape and the way it affects society. It's critical to understand the tremendous changes that have already taken place and the ramifications for the future as we approach a new age in media technology. I visited and participated at the International Broadcasting Convention 2023, held at Amsterdam and was amazed with the huge landscape of media technology software and hardware developing pace. Media technology has made incredible strides in recent years due to machine learning and artificial intelligence. By curating personalized content recommendations, algorithms make it simpler for consumers to find content that is relevant to their interests. Immersive storytelling experiences are made possible by virtual and augmented reality technologies, which is altering how we interact with media material. However, these advancements raise important ethical and societal questions. The growth of deep fakes challenges the authenticity of media, making it increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction. The algorithms that power content recommendations can lead to filter bubbles and echo chambers, reinforcing people's existing beliefs and limiting exposure to diverse perspectives. As we look ahead, let us embrace these advancements as tools for progress, making the media an even more influential force for positive change in our world.

Book excerpt: This book presents innovative technology-enhanced learning solutions for STEM education proposed by the EU Horizon 2020-funded NEWTON project by first highlighting the benefits and limitations of existing research work, e- learning systems and case studies that embedded technology in the teaching and learning process. NEWTON’s proposed innovative technologies and pedagogies include adaptive multimedia and multiple sensorial media, virtual reality, fabrication and virtual labs, gamification, personalisation, game-based learning and self-directed learning pedagogies. The main objectives are to encourage STEM education among younger generations and to attract students to STEM subjects, making these subjects more appealing and interesting. Real life deployment of NEWTON technologies and developed educational materials in over 20 European educational institutions at primary, secondary and tertiary levels demonstrated statistical significant increases in terms of learner satisfaction, learner motivation and knowledge acquisition.
