Abstract
As the world is enthralled with all the facts, fiction, and hype of augmented and virtual reality, we should pay close attention and set our virtual eyes on Tokyo, Japan – the host city to the 2020 Olympics.
What will make the 2020 Olympics special, yet uniquely different, is that we live in a completely new global and digital world with the Internet-of-Things, Over-The-Top content, Bitcoin, Blockchain, artificial intelligence, and real-life encounters that leverage augmented and virtual reality. Rest assured that Japan is positioned to have one of the greatest come-from-behind economic victories in the past 40-years, as they invest heavily in augmented in virtual reality for viewing by the world population. In fact, the opening of the 2020 Olympics will feature a (real) flying car and a (mixed-reality) sky-lit meteor shower.
