Современные и будущие технологии презентаций

customized visual environment with virtual reality and augmented reality, which audiences can interact with.
This would allow people watching the presentation remotely (e.g. during a keynote) to actually interact with the presentation by, for example, putting on a VR headset and being teleported inside the simulation which is being talked about.

3. Product demos
Product demos can be the heart of a presentation. Many of the largest and best known presentations included a demo (iPhone, Microsoft Surface Pro, iPad, Google Glass, etc.).

With improved streaming capabilities, demos are becoming more popular, with the presenter usually streaming the device screen to a larger projector so the audience can see what the presenter is doing.

4. Improved engagement
Presentations nowadays adopt a conversational and interactive approach, instead of the audience just listening to the presenter for an hour. Often the presenter will ask questions of the audience and encourage them to get involved in the presentation, leading to higher knowledge retention rates.

questions
• Use storytelling methods
• Use non-linear presentation software
• Add in videos
• Poll the audience
• Use live quizzes
• Use a writing service to review your presentaiton

5. Animations, graphics and cinemagraphs
Animations can make dull presentations more visual and interesting. In addition, cinemagraphs (still photographs in which a minor and repeated movement occurs, forming a video clip) can captivate the audience’s attention, making them particularly popular in blog articles in the form of animated GIFs.
High-quality graphics with attention-grabbing photos, typography and fonts are being used to facilitate audience attention and immerse the user in the presentation.

6. Colors to evoke emotions
Warm, rich and modern colors should be used to influence and manipulate audience emotions and psychology. Newer color trends promote the improvement of audience

Future presentation technology

1. Augmented reality - enhance the world around you
For some time now, augmented reality has been used in presentations. As AR headsets improve in quality and reduce in price, we’ll see them being utilized much more in presentations.
Augmented reality can make static images and data come alive with animations and graphics. AR allows your audience to explore data, locations, stories and much more in a realistic way, putting them inside the story and presentation.

Imagine a product design presentation to directors of a company. Augmented reality allows the directors to visualize the product in the meeting room with them, where they can interact with it as they would the real product.

One limitation with this, particularly at large conferences, is that every audience member would require an AR headset - which currently cost several thousand dollars. The price will reduce in the future but currently this is a key limitation of the technology.

2. Virtual reality - teleport to a new virtual world

(VR) has become a popular way to enhance people’s digital experience. Initially used for gaming, VR is expanding out into the training, collaboration and presentation sectors, where the audience can be teleported to a virtual world - an amazing way to tell immersive stories.
Studies have shown that visualizing a situation increases memory retention. In this way, VR will help audience members retain what is being told, leaving them with a truly memorable experience.
VR is currently much cheaper than AR, with the option of using Google Cardboard or similar low priced headsets at conferences - it is already being experimented with.

As with AR, audience members can even interact with each other in the virtual world. Software such as BigScreen, AltSpace and Facebook Spaces have shown the power of group interaction, something that could be leveraged well for presentations.

Companies are already experimenting with VR meetings and presentations and will be very exciting so see where this leads - will it end up replacing Skype and other VOIP / video presentation software?

3. Embedding 3D models
3D models have been used for years now but as a result of better accessibility with PowerPoint’s 3D functionality, presenters can show all the possible perspectives of a product to be designed.

designers in general. Being able to present 3D models to colleagues and stakeholders in an understandable way is important for the review process.

4. A seamless presentation
The rapport between presenters, their audience and their presentation is crucial. Information being presented on the screen needs to correspond with the presenter's body language and speech.
Devices such as Leap Motion controllers allow presenters to advance slides, control transition between slides or zoom slides by tracking hand, finger and muscle movements. This technology will become an important part of future presentations.

5. Audience interaction with your presentation
Technology will change how your presentation audience interact with the presentation, including how they ask questions, make suggestions, contribute to polls and discuss your presentation online.
Technology can allow anyone in the world to watch and interact with your presentation - future technology may even reduce the need to people to meet up inperson, with online and interaction tools being so powerful. This will reduce travel emissions and wasted travel time - both areas employees and companies are keen to reduce.
