With the AR/VR market expected to surpass $100B USD over the next few years, it's impact on open networking will be immense. The opportunities for operators to leverage this hot market to generate revenue are real and much innovation is happening in this area. From virtual healthcare to virtual front row seats at a rock concert, the experience must be flawless with a low latency network. In this presentation, Mike McBride will share how emerging technologies will impact the network and how open standards are evolving to support operators in these new business opportunities.
