... But what is a virtual reality headset anyway? Two things. Firstly, 3D visuals – just as your eyes perceive the real world. This is more than simple cross-eyed viewing though, and involves a complex series of transformations to wrap the view around and produce large field of vision – 110 degrees in the Rift, in fact. Secondly – and this is where the Oculus really becomes something amazing –head tracking - so that when you move your head to look up, your view of the virtual world adjusts accordingly. You can look around with a full 360 degree of freedom, including right behind you. It is designed specifically for video games that will change the way you think about gaming forever. With an incredibly wide field of view, high resolution display, and ultra-low latency head tracking, the Rift provides a truly immersive experience that allows you to step inside your favorite game and explore new worlds like never before. What’s special about the Rift is that it can deliver nearly the same level of immersion as existing commercial setups costing orders of magnitude more, but at a price that makes it available, if not to the average consumer, at least to the average consumer who would already have the kind of computing...

...and very fun, creative displays. Retailers get more and more creative as time goes on. Store windows aren’t the only place where a store can show off its clothing and great ideas. Little setups all over the store and in the front window can keep customers interested in the retailer’s wares. The best way to do this is to have fun and kitschy themes for displays, full of oversized imagery, scenic backdrops, and saturated and whitened bright colors. Whimsical displays are becoming more popular as well. Having soft, pastel hues mixed with other bright colors and white, powdery, matte surfaces, using objects like pinwheels or streamers to evoke childhood memories. Usually the clothing in the displays are matched with the background/imagery to make for an even more finished look. Big impact visualizations is another trend, usually having huge backdrops or posters to covey the theme of the display. It’s meant to be the first thing noticed when walking into the store. A customer may find “…endcaps presenting artfully curated product selections that entice [them] to touch and feel the merchandise. [They] may find a bevy of color-coordinated and themed merchandising messages on signage and graphics throughout the aisles.” (designretailonline). These displays make a statement about the store as a whole. They can make or break whether a customer likes what they see when they come in. For the lighting in the store, color can influence someone’s impression of the display and the stores appearance...

Visual merchandisers are seeking a best way to attract customers by significantly improving display design to create competitive advantage. As Davis(2013) observe, there is a new trend in fashion marketing that companies are looking to the past to make an emotional connection to their customers and translate to sales. Venturing also on such approach is inditex brand Massimo Dutti. This retailer has been refurbishing its window displays with flapper-style mannequins and gorgeous props duly to recreate a 1920s vibe (Figure 1), which appeals to customers. In a consumer driven market, what does Massimo Dutti hope to achieve from nostalgic window displays? Does “nostalgic window dressing” make sense? This essay will focus on the relationship between shoppers and retail visual offerings. In particular, it explains the effect of styling, color and props used on the window display.

The clear winners from globalization are consumers and efficient manufactureres. As producction has been redistributed along cheaper countries around the world, these made posible so many profitable changes. Also as always, there are losers from others joy. The film fimrs that make cathode-ray tv are losers and also manufactureres from countries whom are not profitable to investors. 3)Then they would make the product more expensive, and thus less accessible to population. They would eventually kill the industry and probably favor substitute goods for flat televisions. In a balance, this would be really bad, both for Asian and Mexican economies as well for the consumption of them in the US. Restricting trade through barriers and useless tariffs is always a bad idea. 4) What does the example of vizio tell you about the future of production in an increasingly integrated global economy?

...Introduction The business I’m creating is called The Clothes Shack. It will be an up to date and stylish shop which will be based in the centre of Cambridge’s busy shopping centre. The main aim is to sell clothes and accessories which are up to date with the latest fashion to the public in order for me to create a profit. My business will be set up as a partnership, which will include myself and my sister. Initial Funding The opening of the shop will be funded through the savings which we both have which is a total of £23,000 and then the £10,000 we inherited from our Granddad between us. As this would not be enough to cover our costs we will apply for a mortgage loan with our local bank and ask for £237,000 for the buying of the unit, which we plan to repay monthly. Location We will set up the shop in the middle of one of Cambridge’s main shopping centres, the Lion Yard. We have chosen this location as other well known fashion shops such as Topshop and Topman, Newlook and River Island, etc. are also set up here and have similar target markets. However we have to be careful as they will become our new competitors and they are well-known so they have an advantage. With this location it should help to entice the customers into the shop as it’s the location which they are likely to be shopping in as they will in the shops opposite (RiverIsland and Topshop etc). Also the shops unit is on the ground floor instead of the 1st floor. This is an advantage as there are more...

...An new i-PR structure for a patterned retardertype 3D display To ameliorate the polarized glasses-type 3D display with a patterned retarder, we strongly recommend the i-PR (in cell black stripe Patterned Retarder) structure. In 3D mode, this particular structure can improve vertical viewing angle. When 2D switching mode is expressed, luminance and visibility will ameliorate at the same time. 1. Introduction These days, 3D movie is a rising star; with Hollywood as the center, numerous movies and major CATV enterprises are producing 3D contents including education, sports etc. End user’s requirements of 3D display have been increasing rapidly. [1]Especially, the patterned retarder type product has been demanded by producer of 3D contents as a professional use because it can able to express less than 1% of 3D crosstalk.

Second of all, it is inexpensive compare to shutter glasses. Based on B2B market system, their requirements are slowly expanding.
